International Conference on Construction Applications of Virtual Reality (CONVR)

The International Conference on Construction Applications of Virtual Reality focuses on the use of immersive technologies—such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR)—to improve processes across the construction and built-environment industries. The conference brings together researchers, software developers, construction professionals, and educators to explore how immersive visualization enhances design understanding, stakeholder communication, safety training, and project coordination. Topics commonly include VR-based design reviews, AR-supported on-site construction, simulation for construction planning and logistics, and immersive training for hazard recognition and skills development. The conference also addresses technical challenges related to data integration with Building Information Modeling (BIM), user interaction, hardware limitations, and cost-benefit assessment. Increasing attention is given to human factors, usability, and the effectiveness of immersive tools in real project environments. By combining technological innovation with construction practice, the conference contributes to improving productivity, safety, and decision-making in complex construction projects.
