## What is BuildX AR?

BuildX AR revolutionizes construction project management by combining Augmented Reality (AR) with BIM (Building Information Modeling) and ERP integration. Designed for architects, engineers, contractors, and project managers, BuildX AR helps visualize, inspect, and manage your building models in real-world environments – directly from your mobile device.

Main features : 
1. Augmented Reality for Construction
Overlay 3D BIM models directly on-site using smartphones or tablets. Align virtual models with real-world conditions

2. BIM Model Viewer
IFC model viewer on mobile with support for layers, elements, and categories. Offline access to models on-site

3. Issue Tracking
Report construction issues with photo, note, and geolocation. Sync issues to a web dashboard or export to other tools (like Procore)

4. Model Comparison
Compare planned BIM models with actual on-site progress. Detect deviations in real-time using AR overlay

5. Team Collaboration
Share model views and issue reports among team members. Permission-based access (contractors, engineers, managers)


6. Cloud Synchronization
Automatic model and data syncing between field and office. Web platform for model upload and issue management

7. Offline Mode
Access and interact with models even without internet connection on-site

8. Photo Documentation with BIM Tagging.
