MacDonald-Miller's MLab brings projects to life before they are built through Virtual Reality!

The MLAB at MacDonald-Miller is a 750 sq. foot space dedicated to virtual reality that sparks imagination and inspires collaboration! This new capability provides customers with the ability to explore a project in VR, make real-time adjustments to a building model and immediately see the results in VR. Conversely, customers can make structural changes in VR or change the finish of a floor or surface and bidirectionally update the building model, enabling on the fly adjustments to a building’s design at no cost to construction.

MacDonald-Miller has been using 3-D Modeling and BIM for years. Now, it’s tremendously exciting to have the technology of VR as part of their delivery method, expanding into 4D time simulations and 5D cost analysis, including the ability to calculate the cost of a material or structural change in real time. 

This room delivers the power of creativity and insight into how decisions – big or small – will impact construction in real-time. Combined with the ability to collaborate in VR from anywhere, this truly offers new capabilities for Architects, Facility Owners and General Contractors.

The MLAB will also provide dynamic community outreach by merging STEM values with practical applications for tomorrow’s workforce. MacDonald-Miller will offer tours of the MLAB to local students and teachers with the goal being engagement with community, education, government, and industry to foster a STEM-skills learning experience for the 21st Century workforce.

If you are interested in experiencing your project before it's built, schedule an appointment in the MLab at MacDonald-Miller.

Here's to looking forward together...
