Bentley Institute Student Ambassadors are the go-to person on their school’s campus, helping their peers and educators to get acquainted with Bentley’s software, with inspiring infrastructure projects, and with trends in industries that are advancing the world’s infrastructure.
The ambassadors proactively lead activities on their campuses that support learning and help their fellow students to use software in exciting and innovative ways. This network helps students around the world exchange ideas about leveraging technology, and expands their skills to effectively prepare for careers in infrastructure industries.
This month we recognize Shrenik Bora, a Bentley Institute Student Ambassador studying at Maharashtra Institute of Technology, Pune, India. Shrenik is a student of Structural Engineering in this final year who truly defines the essence of a Bentley Student Ambassador. Since his appointment as a Student Ambassador in December 2015, he has become a leader that actively hosts sessions to spread awareness about the resources available to his fellow students.
Shrenik helped the faculty of his institute and Bentley to organize an introductory session on Bentley’s STUDENTserver at his campus, to acquaint students with how they can access software and take online training. The event was attended by nearly 150 students in their third and fourth year at the institute.
Two months later, Shrenik conducted a session for 50 students in their second year, to likewise orient them about the resources available to them through STUDENTserver, followed by a live demonstration for Masters of Engineering students on STAAD.Pro.
Shrenik used STAAD.Pro to design a G+2 commercial building by himself and shared it with his peers to educate them on the use and benefits of structural design and analysis software. He also created a 3D model of a statue, using ContextCapture, to help his peers see how quickly simple photos can be converted into a reality model.
Shrenik wants every student in his institute to explore a range of software and helps them to learn and expand their skills. He encourages his peers to understand the importance of software in the construction and design industry and prepare themselves for their careers.
Shrenik is a model Ambassador and has actively contributed throughout his tenure to advance the infrastructure professionals of the future. We would like to thank him for his contribution in educating his fellow students and advancing their preparation for the job market. We wish him the best for all the future activities that he plans as a Student Ambassador!
More often than not, projects start with existing data and can come in many forms with many data types. MicroStation CONNECT Edition has the ability to read various data types and geo-coordinate this data. If you want to capture existing conditions to compare the data you have on-hand, MicroStation CONNECT Edition can utilize ContextCapture (*.3MX) files to help augment the data.
In the following example, we have various file types that were brought into MicroStation CONNECT Edition, but are all Geo-Coordinated so that all of the data is in the correct location.
As you can see in the screen capture below, you can compare the survey data to the existing conditions that have been captured by ContextCapture to ensure your data is flawless and accurate before designing.
Once your data is Geo-coordinated correctly, it is as simple as selecting the correct Geographic Coordinate System that you are working in, and referencing the data in MicroStation CONNECT Edition.
Never leave the accuracy of the data within your model to chance. Intrinsic Geo-coordination allows for you and your team to work in context in an intrinsically geo-coordinated environment so that your BIM models are designed in price geographic and geometric context.

The Functional Components enablement in MicroStation allows for you to experience true 3-D parametric design for advanced design modeling, leveraging both 2D and 3D constraints to accurately capture and model design intent.
The CONNECT Edition introduces a new smart and comprehensive workflow that is comprised of Parametric Cells and Item Types for creating intelligent and reusable content, ultimately minimizing the need for re-modeling.
Users can now create smart parametric models that can be driven by variables and placed as parametric cells, whose variation can be selected at placement or changed afterwards.
There is no more need to waste time creating large, ineffective libraries of virtually redundant content. Now you can create one parametric “model definition” for your content type and define its variations that you will need in your projects.
Lastly, with MicroStation CONNECT Edition, you can add business data to your content and use it for reporting, driving parametric models, and intelligent display via Display Rules.

Over the past 10 years, many potential applications of augmented reality (AR) for urban infrastructure have been proposed: visualization of subsurface utilities, asset identification and query, excavation and construction planning, etc. Unfortunately, the implementation of AR apps that would be sufficiently accurate and robust for use in infrastructure engineering is hard – because accurately augmenting the physical world is challenging.
For a long time, the main difficulty that AR developers had to face is the real time estimation of the position of the tablet or phone doing the augmentation. Tracking is fundamental to AR, and inaccurate position estimation leads to inaccurate augmentation. Although recent augmentation devices such as the Google Tango or the Microsoft HoloLens pretty much solved the tracking problem in indoor environments, accurate outdoor augmentation is still challenging. Most tracking techniques rely on tracking visual features in a video stream captured by a phone or tablet. Vehicle movements, wind, changing shadows caused by clouds, and uniform surfaces all affect the number of reliable features to be tracked, which results in shaky augmentations, for which the accuracy can hardly be estimated, let alone be predicted. Infrastructure workers cannot rely on such low accuracy augmentation for their work.
(Please visit the site to view this video)
Working on the outdoor augmentation problem, our team came up with a solution to the accuracy issue: instead of trying to track the physical world, we "capture" it. Watch our system in action:
(Please visit the site to view this video)
Of course, our solution is not true AR. I guess we could call it mesh augmentation, or augmentation of mirror worlds. However in the context of urban infrastructure engineering, it has several advantages over true AR systems:
However, our technique also has disadvantages compared to true AR:
Some may question the viability of such a technique, considering the requirement of using an up to date high resolution reality mesh of an entire city. Such meshes, however, are becoming more common every year – take for instance this mesh of the city of Paris, that was obtained in a few months from aerial photos, for an area over 1000 km2.
(Please visit the site to view this video)
I am convinced that in the future, most major cities will use such photorealistic meshes for urban management and planning.
The method we proposed is not as flexible as true AR. It is actually a tradeoff that has the advantage of offering accurate augmentations that users can rely on, that could be developed today using existing technology, and that would require, on site, nothing more than a tablet or a phone…
