Dispensable smart target/ re-usable smart target

摘要

A method for aiding construction of a building is proposed. The building includes a plurality of building components. The method comprises: (A) providing at least one building component marking attached to at least one building component, (B) providing at least one RFID tag, and C) of using at least one building component marking to identify at least one building component on the building site. An RFID tag is attached to at least one building component. The RFID tag is configured to store a predetermined location of at least one building component on a building site. A building component marking is selected from the group consisting of: an optical reflective target; and a physical marking.

1. A method for aiding construction of a building, the method comprising:
accessing a Building Information Modeling (BIM) database to obtain building data for a building component, the building data including three-dimensional coordinates and angular coordinates for installation of the building component on a building site, the building data also including a timing coordinate indicating when the building component is to be installed on the building site; downloading the building data to an RFID tag coupled to the building component; setting up a specific interrogation zone using a plurality of fixed RFID readers, the specific interrogation zone surrounding the three-dimensional coordinates where the building component is to be installed, and controlling in real time installation of said building component having the RFID tag using the plurality of fixed RFID readers during construction of said building, such that an installed position of the building component and a time of the installation correspond to the three-dimensional coordinates, the angular coordinates, and the timing coordinate stored in the RFID tag.
