The 3rd Virtual Design World Cup
Virtual Design World Cup "3rd The
Student VR& BIM Competition on Cloud"
-Competition for designing an advanced
construction engineering-works on Cloud, making full use of BIM/CIM and VR ! -
Theme 2013
Sustainable Station Front in Global Metropolis
This
is an international design competition for students to compete amongst
each other in designing an innovative architecture, bridge and city
design using BIM/CIM &VR technologies.
Every year students
compete for the top prize 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 for evaluation.
To assist students
with the production of their work, 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 having to visit the local area by participating
various workshop reviews through the Web and VR forum ( 3D cloud BBS ).
The script of VR data created by FORUM8's software and a "Concept
poster" (A1 size (lateral) in PDF format) are 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
technologies by all means and consider this competition as an
opportunity to create your masterpiece. We encourage students from
different departments majoring in different field of studies to make a
team to work on their model together to demonstrate that BIM/CIM can be
used in various discipline.

Guideline for applicants

Theme 2013 : Sustainable Station Front in Global Metropolis
The concept of installing a new train station as part of the
redevelopment project, whose plan is to reorganize the 20 hectare rail
yard situated between Shinagawa station and Tamachi station and to
relocate the Yamanote line from the west side of the yard to the east
side (adjacent to the Shinkansen line), has been announced on air and
put into consideration. No wonder the excitement for a new station
whose name has not been given yet. The 2013 VDWC challenges students to
devise a proposal of a new environmentally friendly urban space, which
will most likely become one of Tokyo's significant "stopping off
points" for people transferring from one transport mode to another,
radiating from a new train station in Tokyo's harbor district. The VR
data of the competition site includes the Shinagawa Intercity where
FORUM8’s head office will be relocated this July, and the Shinagawa
station front.
