XYZ Reality
Florida, USA
Posted on Oct 22, 2024
The position revolves around on-site Layout, Quality Inspections and Progress Reporting for construction installations, using XYZ's Augmented Reality technology, the Atom. The Atom enables the user to view 3D BIM models as holograms/overlays through its visor, alongside the live environment around them, for absolute objectivity and efficiency.
Introduction to XYZ
XYZ Reality are the creators of the world's first and only engineering-grade Augmented Reality solution, purpose built for the construction industry. Not only have we created this holographic technology, that sits within The Atom – a smart, site-safe headset/hardhat - but we implement it on projects, utilising the power of AR to ensure that all schemes are completed in line with the delivery timescales and budgets.
XYZ has grown to over 120 staff across the UK, US & Europe and is working with Mission Critical organisations & construction companies to successfully deliver major projects.
Field / Surveying Engineer (Using Augmented Reality)
As an Engineer / Surveyor at XYZ, you'll be wearing the Atom and using it to eliminate construction and design errors on site, which would otherwise lead to costly and time-consuming rework. You'll visualise the design models in holograms through the visor, and provide regular updates of potential clashes/errors in what has been, or is to be, installed by verifying what you're seeing in front of you.
