CITY FOR PEOPLE: POLI-USP presents technologies for cities

Originally published in 2019. References to events, registration, prices and professional profiles in this part of the post belong to that period. EBBIM, Empresa Brasileira de BIM, was known as TI Lab at that time.

Event organized by students at POLI-USP discusses the use of advanced technologies to improve cities.

The IX SeTEC was announced to start on August 12, 2019, Technology Week organized by students of the Polytechnic School of the University of São Paulo.

The event was advertised as free and open to the public. The announcement listed several talks, short courses, and technical visits focused on the theme CITY FOR PEOPLE.

The presentations highlight the use of digital technologies applied to projects and construction works across various sectors of the construction industry. Topics covered include the use of drones in construction, augmented reality, and BIM, applied to project planning, the real estate market, and infrastructure works.

At this event, EBBIM is participating with the short course Georeferenced Projects and Virtual Reality using SketchUp Pro and Trimble Connect. Participants were expected to carry out a collaborative, georeferenced building model, as massing studies.

Afterward, they were expected to use their phones to check the results of their work in the parking lot and gardens of POLI-USP. Augmented, mixed, and georeferenced reality technologies will be used.

Interested? This is just one of the many fascinating short courses, talks, and visits at the event! Find out how to participate at https://setecpoli.com.br/home.
