AR Inzicht
AR Insight: Transparent Urban Development Siekerman Technology B.V. is developing an innovative AR solution that helps municipalities communicate more effectively about urban development projects. Using new AR glasses, users see context-relevant information - duration, background and expected results - right at the location of the works. Residents can respond directly, help shape project information and get in touch with contractors. The goal: reducing nuisance through better information provision and building broader support for necessary urban development.

URPIX
URban Planning IX URban Planning IX (URPIX) helps urban planners quickly translate policy scenarios into realistic visualisations of cityscapes. This gives residents insight into the consequences of different scenarios. Residents view the visuals through XR visualisations, and can also switch between different scenarios. Alongside the cityscape, URPIX also shows the effects on the living environment, such as air quality, impact on mobility, and population density. This gives residents insight into the consequences of policy choices at an early stage, and lets them take part in the dialogue between planners, policymakers and implementers.
Virtual Reality en Neurofeedback
Virtual reality and neurofeedback: towards a more inclusive city The Olifantenpad Consortium believes the era of well-intentioned drawing-board plans and the unplanned desire paths people carve out afterwards is over. The Olifantenpad Consortium is developing a participation tool that reveals people's conscious and unconscious responses to a spatial environment or design, using VR, AI and neurofeedback grounded in environmental psychology. The tool provides broad insight into how different groups of people experience a spatial environment, helping to prevent urban planning mistakes, costly changes after the fact, and delays in the construction process.
Participate-360
Participate-360: participation, data and visualisation in the living environment ReGreeny is developing a digital 3D platform that lets residents, designers and municipalities plan together for their street or neighbourhood. In many neighbourhoods, it's hard to make good decisions about things like greening, traffic and water storage, because these issues are complex and interconnected. With this platform, users can immediately see the effect of their choices, helping plans come together faster and better aligned. This helps prevent misunderstandings and delays, and builds greater support among residents.
GrondGids
GrondGids is an interactive tool developed by Studio Metaform and Bright that playfully connects residents with what lies beneath their neighbourhood. Climate change, the energy transition and grid congestion are putting growing pressure on (underground) public space. GrondGids makes underground systems such as energy, water, data and green infrastructure visible and easy to understand. It shows how choices made within households are linked to developments in public space. GrondGids supports an integrated approach that helps people make informed decisions, understand their living environment, and work together towards sustainable development.
Urban Remix
Urban Remix: AI-driven citizen participation through visual storytelling Urban Remix is an AI-powered platform that helps residents visually communicate their ideas for their own neighbourhood. Through a chatbot, map interface, and image and animation tools, citizen participation becomes more accessible, more persuasive and more visually engaging. The feasibility study examines the technical, societal and economic conditions needed for successful implementation, building a bridge between residents and policymakers. It also gives students the chance to work on a pressing societal issue in which AI, IX and inclusion take centre stage.
SimCityScope
SimCityScope: virtual experience and coordination of urban disruption and construction phasing SimCityScope is an interactive process, including a tool, that lets residents, business owners and policymakers experience building projects and other neighbourhood changes virtually before they happen. Through VR, AR or a screen, you see not just the end result but also the planning, temporary closures and possible disruption. This creates more understanding, engagement and better collaboration before construction begins. The project helps municipalities and other parties make better decisions on urban development together with residents.
