Want to share an interesting case from our team. Our team worked on a custom workflow that helps turn raw LiDAR point clouds into BIM-ready outputs faster and with less manual effort. I think it’s a good example of AI being applied where it solves a real delivery challenge, not just where it looks impressive in a demo. Worth a read if you work with LiDAR, BIM, AEC, or digital twin solutions. #ScanToBIM #LiDAR #PointCloud #BIM #AEC #DigitalTwin #MachineLearning #ConstructionTech #Timspark
𝗟𝗶𝗗𝗔𝗥 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗻𝘀 are rich in data. 📡 The bottleneck starts after capture. 𝗔𝗘𝗖 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀 can scan a site fast. Turning 𝗿𝗮𝘄 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗱𝘀 into usable building elements and 𝗕𝗜𝗠-𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗽𝘂𝘁𝘀 is the part that still eats up time. That’s where our team stepped in. For an AEC client, Timspark built a custom 𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗻-𝘁𝗼-𝗕𝗜𝗠 workflow that: • segments 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘂𝗱 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮 with 𝗠𝗟 • detects 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 based on the client’s taxonomy • validates the output • converts it into 𝗕𝗜𝗠-𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹𝘀 for real project workflows Tech behind it: Python, TensorFlow, PyTorch, PCL, Pointcept, Azure GPU instances, Revit-compatible conversion logic. Result: ✅ ~𝟬.𝟴𝟱 𝗺𝗜𝗼𝗨 overall ~𝟱-𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲 𝗿𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 in modern 𝗚𝗣𝗨 𝗲𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 less 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁 faster path from 𝗟𝗶𝗗𝗔𝗥 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗕𝗜𝗠-𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗽𝘂𝘁𝘀 Disclaimer: The solution is not an off-the-shelf product, but a client-specific engineering workflow built for delivery.
