La realidad virtual aplicada a la producción del proyecto arquitectónico

Abstract

Human, throughout history, has managed to extend his skills through different tools. At present, virtual reality allows potentiate activities in different fields of application, such as: military, scientific, medical, therapeutic, among others, where creating a virtual world means interacting with a simulated reality. However, in the field of architecture, the virtual reality has not come to be implemented in the production of the architectural project, due to the incompatibility or deficiency that manage the own programs of architecture with this type of technologies.

In the present work the virtual reality is applied during the architectural production process of a pavilion, being Unreal Engine 4 one of the platforms that allowed an interactive immersion. Giving us a clearer conception of space at the time of conceiving the architectural project. In addition, it should be emphasized that it is a medium where it could develop in a better way the three-dimensional capacities of the student, to create unique spatial experiences and above all to improve the conception of the space to project.
