Unity Reflect Review vs Trimble SiteVision

Unity Reflect is a BIM design and coordination solution that connects all project members on one immersive, collaborative, real-time platform regardless of device, model size, or geographic-location. Transfer your BIM data from Revit, Navisworks, SketchUp, and Rhino into real-time 3D experiences on a range of devices in AR and VR to bridge the gap between design and construction. Unity Reflect allows you to: • Visualize BIM (Building Information Modelling) models on your phone or tablet by connecting to a Unity Reflect server. • Open a live link and see changes made to the model in your design application reflected in real time in the Unity Reflect app. • Filter your model based on its BIM metadata and highlight systems and components independently. • View your model in augmented reality in world-scale In order to make your model available to the Unity Reflect app, you must first publish it to a Unity Reflect server. To do so, simply install a Unity Reflect plugin in your design application (Revit, Navisworks, BIM360, Sketchup, Rhino) and tap the Export or the Sync button.

Trimble® SiteVision® is a real-time, in-field visualization and reality capture for collaborating on project progress and detecting design changes or conflicts. Choose your hardware configuration to collect images, GNSS points, EDM points or LiDAR scans. Work with SiteVision indoors, or outdoors in conjunction with a Trimble HPS2 handle or Trimble Catalyst DA2 receiver for high precision GNSS workflows. Key Features • Reality capture - capture georeferenced 3D scans (requires LiDAR enabled iPhone Pro or iPad Pro) • Visualization tools - use AR to view your 3D model data on site and in context, utilizing transparency, cross-section, and fishbowl tools. • Capture issues - take augmented reality site photos to clearly communicate issues & share them with industry standard BCF Topic support. • Cloud enabled collaboration - share project data with Trimble Connect, cloud-based common data environment and collaboration platform. • Measurements - measure and record progress and as-built information such as positions, lengths, and areas • Offline support - work offline then sync later to Trimble Connect • Supports a wide range of industry workflows and data formats: • common BIM data via Trimble Connect - IFC, NWD/NWC, RVT, SKP, DWG, TRB, Tekla • CAD data from Trimble Business enter, Civil3D, OpenRoads, Novapoint, LandXML • GIS data via Trimble Maps and OGC Web Feature Services • Support for precision GNSS workflows enabled by Trimble RTX and VRS services or internet base stations for global correction service coverage
