2019 Hilti Company Report “ FIELD2BIM SOLUTIONS GREATLY ENHANCE THE PRODUCTIVITY OF OUR CUSTOMERS.” Thomas Hillbrand, Head of the Measuring Business Unit, Hilti Headquarters, Liechtenstein This image shows Hilti Project Manager Ashvin Kumar with four of his colleagues – of course, they cannot actually be seen with Ashvin on the construction site in Toronto, Canada, because they are touring the site with him virtually from their workplaces in the USA, Asia and Europe. The images that Ashvin scans are processed into a 3D digital walk-through of the project. This technology, purchased by Hilti in 2019 from the start-up company Indoor Reality Inc., allows Ashvin’s customer to precisely plan the project’s next steps together with an international team of experts. This is made possible using cloud-based 3D visualization, which creates a technological bridge between the physical and digital worlds. 44–45
