Can VR Collaboration Find Problems Earlier To Save $280 Billion+ In Construction Waste – Nic Fonta

Nic Fonta, GM of XR at Autodesk, reveals how Workshop XR is stopping $280 billion in annual construction waste. Hear his amazing origin story: from a $35M MIG-29 cockpit simulator to building a platform that uses spatial understanding to catch design flaws invisible in 2D; like when an architect missed a flaw for months—until he put on a VR headset. Today Workshop XR (https://www.autodesk.com/workshopxr) helps teams find problems when they're cheaper to fix, keeps people engaged during reviews, and catches safety hazards before workers arrive on site. Next up: bringing AI agents into immersive spaces so they learn from spatial relationships and get better over time. Key Moments: [0:02:58] - Real-time simulation background brought to Autodesk to transform how designers work [0:07:02] - Couldn't pick between architecture and engineering, chose engineering, serves architects now [0:08:58] - First job: $35 million MIG-29 fighter jet cockpit simulator with massive clunky VR headset [0:13:35] - Why customer visits matter: touring firms reveals how designers actually work day-to-day [0:15:12] - $280 billion annual construction waste from poor communication and missed design problems [0:22:28] - Safety reviews emerged as surprise use case—catching hazards before workers reach sites [0:25:56] - Architect catches VR design flaw he missed for months in 2D—proof spatial understanding transforms perception [0:29:54] - Six-month goals: full 2D capabilities in VR, AI agents learning spatial relationships [0:34:38] - Real blocker to XR adoption: optimizing complex data for 72-90 fps rendering, not hardware Spatial understanding saves billions.
