Description
Reality capture professionals have long delivered accurate digital representation of the built environment through laser scanning, photogrammetry, and drone capture. But the industry is at an inflection point: the shift from static data collection to dynamic, intelligent systems powered by Physical AI. This session explores how Physical AI redefines reality capture by embedding intelligence into the capture process. Integrating sensors, drones, edge computing, and AI models turns periodic documentation into continuous, real-time site awareness. A key focus is the Internet of Drones (IoD) as a persistent capture layer - automating acquisition, enabling autonomous monitoring, and feeding high-frequency data into digital twins. Attendees will also see how alignment with ecosystems like NVIDIA's Physical AI strategy enables simulation, model training, and scalable processing. Applied use cases show how professionals can grow from data collectors into intelligence providers.
