Project Summary
SpaceDev completed development of a PhoneGap-based VR/AR mobile app for a construction-focused tech startup, including 3D elements and instant messaging. The vendor integrated PDF floorplans and external hardware and delivered a working prototype on time. Stakeholders were pleased with the delivery; the prototype won first place at a startup competition and SpaceDev's consistent communication was highlighted.
Key Challenges
- Finish development of a defective, incomplete VR/AR mobile app left by a previous developer.
Project Deliverables
- VR/AR mobile app
- PDF floorplan ingestion
- OSC-based external hardware integration
- Map tiling and 3D elements using Three.js

Project Solution
SpaceDev finished the previously incomplete VR/AR mobile app. They built a PhoneGap (Cordova) app that ingested PDF floorplans, integrated communication with external hardware via OSC, implemented map tiling and 3D elements using Three.js, and added instant messaging. The vendor assigned two developers (one senior, one junior) to complete the work and communicated consistently with the client.
Project Outcome
- Product delivered on time and functioning properly.
- Prototype won first place at a startup competition.
