BIM Holoview is a headset-native augmented and mixed reality tool for architecture, engineering and construction teams, built for Microsoft HoloLens 2 and Meta Quest, with Apple Vision Pro support available through Hololight. It offers a genuine dual rendering path: full offline operation once a model is synced to the device, or cloud streaming through Hololight for massive federated models without reducing polygon count. Teams can choose the approach that fits the site, whether that is a remote location with no connectivity or a large, complex federated model that needs full fidelity.
Anchoring uses QR codes plus World Locking technology, giving sub-1cm accuracy without beacons or proprietary tracking hardware to buy, install or calibrate. Offline performance has been proven directly in the field on remote industrial sites and factory floors with zero cellular or Wi-Fi coverage, so teams are not dependent on site connectivity to get value from the model.
Most BIM and CAD workflows are covered: native plugins for Revit and Navisworks, plus SketchUp, MicroStation, SolidWorks, Tekla, Rhino, ArchiCAD, IFC, FBX and OBJ through Navisworks. That breadth means teams do not need to convert or simplify a model before bringing it into BIM Holoview.
Typical use spans the construction phase, for field verification, coordination and constructability checks against the design model, through to post-construction operations and maintenance, where facility teams can see structural elements and building services that would otherwise be hidden behind finished walls, floors and ceilings.
BIM Holoview is an Autodesk Developer Network member and authorised Autodesk Developer, with a direct integration into Autodesk BIM 360 and Autodesk Construction Cloud in place since 2021.
Founded in 2017, BIM Holoview is used across semiconductor, data centre, industrial, healthcare, oil and gas and infrastructure projects, with a customer base concentrated in North America and a growing presence in Central and South America, the UK and Europe.
