Council takes urban redevelopment AR tool nationwide – Software – iTnews
The expansion was enabled by a $300,000 grant from the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet.
Initially, the council’s smart city team developed ‘WynLens’ as a tool for developers and residents to visualise the $250 million redevelopment of the Werribee city centre.
The project used Microsoft’s HoloLens to illustrate planning proposals and highlight the impact of increased building heights on the community.
Now the project is on track to expand to different cities and incorporate visualisations of live data for pedestrian and vehicle traffic, air quality and water usage.
