Overview


Virtual Design World Cup
"2nd Student BIM & VR Design Contest on Cloud"
-Compete on cloud for the most advanced architectural and civil engineering design using BIM and VR!-

Theme 2012
"Sustainable Design of Marine City"

This contest is an international design competition for students to compete amongst each other in designing innovative architecture, bridge and city design using BIM&VR.
Every year students compete for the top price which is given to an outstanding work outlining a predefined theme in the aspect of design, innovative idea, and creativity. They plan and design their work based on the theme and then run a simulation. Their final model will be presented to the judges in a form of a script and evaluated.
To assist with the production, we plan to carry out workshops and seminars. We will also support the students who will make use of software from now on. Also you can communicate and collect a lot of information without visiting local area by the exhibition of various workshop reviews through the Web and the utilization of VR forum ( 3D cloud BBS ) The script of VR data is required for the final submission and the judgment is performed on the basis of "VR Cloud judgment". We would like you to use forum8's BIM software and VR and think our company as a place which will make your technology and production developed.
