Tricore’s expertise in combining state-of-the-art technology with real-world applications positions it as a key innovator in the industry.
As part of the SafeXtend project, Tricore is delivering a comprehensive suite of services to support the project’s goal of transforming construction industry productivity, highlighting how advanced technologies can reshape traditional workflows, improve safety and streamline project delivery. This encompasses:
LiDAR scanning and data capture: Use of high-precision LiDAR scanners to capture accurate spatial and geometric data of the project assets. This creates detailed, real-world digital representations that serve as the foundation for further analysis and development. By providing precise measurements and a complete digital snapshot, LiDAR scanning ensures clarity at all stages of the project lifecycle, from design to delivery.
Scan to BIM (Building Information Modelling): Leveraging the captured scan data to convert complex point clouds into intelligent BIM models. These 3D digital models enable stakeholders to visualise project assets with unparalleled detail, aiding in planning, design and decision-making. Scan to BIM streamlines communication between teams, reduces errors, and allows for efficient project management by offering an accurate and dynamic reference point.
Virtual reality (VR) creation: Creating immersive VR training and visualisation environments to enhance safety, planning and workforce preparedness. Through realistic VR scenarios, teams can explore project assets, familiarise themselves with environments and practice workflows in a risk-free virtual setting. These VR modules significantly improve safety awareness, emergency preparedness and task-specific learning, leading to reduced on-site risks and enhanced productivity.
AI integration: taking VR solutions to the next level with AI-powered functionalities. Integrating dynamic avatars, automated learning feedback and real-time analytics to enable smarter, interactive experiences. For example, AI-driven modules provide instant user feedback during training sessions, ensuring workers understand safety protocols and operational processes. Additionally, AI capabilities can analyse performance data, identify areas for improvement and help optimise workforce efficiency.
Tricore’s role in the SafeXtend project underscores the company’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of innovation in the construction sector, with integration of these advanced technologies helping to transform outdated processes into smarter, technology-driven workflows. This combination enables greater accuracy, improved collaboration and safer, more productive working environments.
The company’s solutions deliver tangible value by reducing project costs, minimising risks and enhancing overall efficiency. The team’s work on SafeXtend will set a new benchmark for how cutting-edge technologies can be applied to real-world construction challenges, providing a blueprint for future advancements in the sector. Through its commitment to innovation, quality, and collaboration, Tricore continues to lead the way in delivering transformational change across industries globally, and is proud to partner on, and contribute its expertise to, the ambitious SafeXtend initiative.
