Smarter Building Podcast Ep. 3 - AR & VR In Construction: How Can We Adopt It?
In this episode of our Smarter Building podcast, we caught up with Dan Bambridge, Senior Client Partner - Digital Twins EMEA at Unity 3D. Discover how the Construction industry is embracing real-time 3D technology to change the way buildings are designed, created, and operated, and what more can be done to realise this.
Unity is a leading game engine and development platform used to create real-time interactive and visually captivating experiences across multiple platforms including desktop, mobile devices, consoles, virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) devices.
Now being adopted by the Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Operation (AECO) industries to make use of their data and understand how they can get more out of it with these technologies. Tune into this episode to hear Dan discuss the different types of use cases, including how digital twins can be used to simulate the performance of a building in real time, as well as some of the challenges that the industry is facing in terms of adopting real-time 3D technology.
"I think there needs to be more of a focus on what can this technology do for us. Rather than lets see what's already out there and try and make it work for us to pigeonhole it into an area that's not really going to work."

How CQi Automates CAD Deployments and Reduces Risk
In modern Architecture, engineering, construction and design environments, the pressure is on IT teams to deliver fast, consistent, and secure software setups. Whether you're supporting ten users or ten thousand, manual installation methods simply can’t keep up with the demands of large-scale CAD environments. That’s where CQi (Configuration Intelligence)steps in. At Symetri, we developed CQi to help organisations automate CAD deployment, reduce risk, and maintain standardisation—all without increasing the burden on IT departments. In this blog, we’ll explore how CQi works and why it’s becoming a go-to solution for smarter CAD management.
AI-powered Digitalisation of Building Information: Transforming Workflows with Bimify
In the construction and architecture industry, access to accurate and editable building data is critical for efficient design, planning, and execution. Yet, many firms still face the challenge of working with static drawings or locked file formats that limit progress.
Security Gaps You Didn't Know You Had
As cybersecurity threats continue to evolve, some of the biggest risks to your organisation might not be obvious. In this month’s IT Bulletin, we shine a light on three critical security concerns that are often underestimated or overlooked entirely. These issues can silently compromise systems, leak data, or be exploited without detection.
