TL;DR: In this study, a small-scale aerial drone was used as a tool for exploring potential benefits to safety managers within the construction jobsite and recommendations for the required features of an Ideal Safety Inspection Drone were led.

TL;DR: InfoSPOT as mentioned in this paper is a mobile augmented reality (AR) tool for accessing information about the facilities they maintain, which has been considered as a viable option to reduce inefficiencies of data overload by providing FMs with a Situation Awareness (SA)-based tool for visualizing their real-world environment with added interactive data.

TL;DR: The results indicated that the most important safety activities that can be improved using UASs were monitoring boom vehicles or cranes in the proximity of overhead power lines, monitoring activities in the close proximity of boom vehiclesor cranes, and monitoring unprotected edges or openings.

TL;DR: This proof-of-concept study developed and evaluated a platform using augmented 360-degree panoramas of reality (PARS) for safety-training applications to enhance trainees’ hazard-identification skills for four types of sample hazards and demonstrated that the trainees found the platform and augmentations advantageously to learning hazard identification.

TL;DR: This research contributes an efficient and cost-effective solution to integrate BIM into MAR by developing a method and workflow that practitioners can use to consolidate, optimize, and visualize their data and models in an MAR environment.
