HAMPDEN ROAD
I am currently developing a process for mapping drains and other infrastructure services which can be shared between gas, electricity, water and communication companies.
​
The video shows the metal sewage system in green and plastic gas pipes in yellow. Plastic pipes are currently undetectable at surface, adding greatly to the time spent locating them with pin-point accuracy.
​
With multiple operators able to share this database, the potential for huge efficiency savings is clear.
MAPPING THE SERVICES
To give an idea of how complicated the mapping of underground services can be, this video can give some idea. This is wilshere crescent in Hitchin.
New gas pipes were layed under electricity, sewage and phone lines. The challenge in the future will be how to replace one without digging up the others.
AUGMENTED REALITYÂ BASIC PASS
Using Vuforia as my AR solution, I can now track the pipes in the ground based on a proportionally scaled AR card. The next stage will be to create a UI to control opacity and basic functionality of the model itself.
