BIMvoice
Welcome to BIMvoice, the podcast that provides a platform for Building Information Modeling (BIM) professionals to share their perspectives and insights on the industry. In this podcast, we cover a wide range of topics related to BIM, including its applications in architecture, engineering, and construction, as well as the latest trends and challenges facing the industry. One of the key topics we focus on is OpenBIM, a platform-independent approach to BIM that enables seamless collaboration and data exchange among different stakeholders. We believe that OpenBIM is revolutionizing the AEC industry and has the potential to transform the way we design, construct, and operate buildings. Through our conversations with experts in the field, including architects, engineers, and software developers, we explore the benefits of using OpenBIM, including interoperability, flexibility, and data exchange. We also discuss the challenges of implementing OpenBIM and how organizations can overcome them. Our guests share their personal experiences with OpenBIM tools like IFC, BCF, IDS, and provide insights on how OpenBIM is improving collaboration among different disciplines, increasing efficiency, and reducing errors and rework. We also discuss the latest developments in OpenBIM technology and how it is being used in real-world projects. Whether you’re an architect, engineer, contractor, or software developer, BIMvoice provides you with valuable insights and practical tips to help you get the most out of BIM and OpenBIM. So, join us for our next episode and let’s explore the exciting world of BIM together!

ifcXR - Mixed Reality App Built with IFC.js by Craig Liesinger
Here is what an Open Source project can lead to: people from any industry can build whatever app they need using the free open source library IFC.js. The only limitation is your imagination, because IFC.js is growing, becoming more robust and adding more features every month, if not every week.
Craig Liesinger is working as a Digital customer experience & field sales productivity manager for Ecolab, in Vienna, Austria. The fact that he's not working directly within the Construction Industry did not stop him to build his app which targets AEC, and this is just an example of the potential of having such tools as IFC.js at our disposal. Well done Craig, amazing work!
Here you can have a look at his app, ifcXR: https://bit.ly/3y0UNOn
Now, off you go and build your revolutionary app using IFC.js!
