Abstract

There are many significant advantages in using virtual reality technology for architecture and design, according to the research on the subject. The capacity to create interactive, realistic, and immersive environments that let clients and designers experience the building in a way that is not achievable with conventional 2D plans or physical models is one of the main benefits. Buildings, landscapes, and interiors can all be viewed and experienced from every angle thanks to the exact and realistic 3D models that architects and designers can produce utilising VR technology. This enables customers to fully appreciate the building's dimensions, scale, and proportions in addition to the ambience and vibe it exudes. VR technology can be utilised to discover and resolve any design flaws or challenges in addition to giving clients a more immersive experience. Architects and designers can test and improve their designs in a way that is not achievable through conventional means by simulating various scenarios and settings. By avoiding the need for expensive and time-consuming design adjustments, this can help to save time and money during the construction process. In addition, VR technology can be applied to the construction of greener, more energy-efficient buildings. Architects may optimise the design to lower energy use and boost sustainability by simulating how a building performs in various environments and climates. This may have a substantial effect on the building's long-term running costs. Integration of Nanite and Lumen in this system not only reduces the computational power needed but also increases the realism and efficiency thus making it easier for the user as well as developer to use the technology in a simplified manner. Overall, using VR technology in architecture and design has a number of advantages that can aid in the creation of structures that are more precise, effective, and sustainable. Designers may guarantee that their designs satisfy the needs and expectations of their clients while also accomplishing their objectives for sustainability and efficiency by offering them an immersive and interactive experience.
