[0039] 3. Lightweight BIM engine: The cloud BIM model is split into spatial topology units by the parsing module, and dynamically loaded through adaptive LOD (level of detail) algorithm. When the user's field of view focuses on a specific area, the engine automatically simplifies non-critical structures (such as hidden pipe inner walls) according to the component type, and only retains the outer contour and connection nodes, so that a 200GB level model has a loading delay of less than 300ms under 5G network.
[0040] 4. MR interaction control system: Embed gesture-physical coupling interaction layer in MR interface. As shown in Figure 3 : Capture gesture trajectory by workers wearing touch gloves (with 9-axis IMU sensors built-in); at the same time, scan the morphological characteristics of construction tools (such as wrenches and levels) to establish a tool library; When a worker is detected holding a specific tool, automatically activate the corresponding BIM component operation instruction, such as bolt tightening angle prompt, forming a natural interaction paradigm of "tool as interface".

[0046] 6. Digital twin: Digital twin constructs a cloud virtual mirror system, which receives real-time construction data flow (including positioning information, quality acceptance record, process video, etc.) from the field through OPC UA protocol, and establishes a four-dimensional digital mapping model based on the space-time stamp <t_loc, t_edge, δ>. Its core functions include: Incremental update mechanism: use improved Delta Lake architecture to synchronize only changed data packages (average size < 50KB) Predictive analytics engine: Based on LSTM network training of historical construction data, predict potential risks (such as the probability of component stress exceeding limits).
[0047] The workflow of the above system is as follows: Figure 6 As shown: 1. Equipment initialization phase During the system startup phase, the multi-source perception layer and the real-time communication layer work together to complete the hardware network construction and software environment deployment.
[0048] UWB base stations automatically form a spatial positioning skeleton through the Zigbee protocol and use a distributed TDOA (Time Difference of Arrival) algorithm to calculate the initial coordinates of the terminal. That At the speed of light, This is a multipath error compensation term (empirical value 0.3ns); At the same time, the lightweight BIM engine loads the spatial topology index (IFC parser output), and the real-time communication layer establishes an OPCUA secure session.
[0049] 2. Spatial calibration stage The LiDAR scanner (Velodyne VLP-16) generates a point cloud reference surface at a rate of 1.2 million points / second. After noise reduction processing using the ISS key point extraction algorithm, the target point cloud density is ≥50pts / m². The vision system identifies the AprilTag mark on the preset calibration board; The data fusion engine performs coarse ICP registration:

[0058] When MatchScore≥0.85, the LRA actuator of the touch finger sleeve (MPU-9250) generates a 200Hz pulse, and superimposes the AR torque guidance to generate a torque guidance progress bar (τ: angular velocity of gyroscope, I: component moment of inertia).
[0059] 5, Deviation guidance stage The real-time guidance system compares point clouds and BIM models through a non-rigid registration algorithm: ε =∥ Pcloud S( Pbim )∥2 where S is a thin plate spline interpolation function (TPS). The MR interaction control layer maps the deviation value δ to the HSV color space: , At the same time, activate the spatial audio prompt (sound pressure level ), realize multi-channel deviation warning.
[0060] 6, Data closed loop stage Acceptance data is uploaded to the digital twin through the OPC UA protocol, and incremental update is performed using the improved Delta Lake architecture (average packet size < 50KB).

The real-time communication layer ensures temporal consistency through Lamport clocks: When the cumulative deviation is detected to be >3mm, the model correction instruction is automatically triggered.
[0061] The process and module correspondence is shown in the following table:
[0062] In this embodiment, through multi-source data fusion, lightweight BIM engine, intelligent interaction control and other technologies, a technical closed loop of "multi-source fusion positioning-BIM lightweight-intelligent interaction" is constructed, realizing high-precision real-time construction guidance and collaborative management: Spatial positioning compensation mechanism: Through the UWB network to provide macro positioning constraint (accuracy ±10cm), LiDAR to build centimeter level point cloud reference surface, visual system to realize component level identification, innovatively use extended Kalman filter to fuse three source heterogeneous data, dynamically compensate sensor error. This mechanism breaks through the technical limitations of traditional single positioning method, and still maintains <1cm positioning accuracy in dense steel structure area.
[0063] Tool interface (TUI) interaction paradigm: Establish a construction tool form feature library (including 32 types of wrenches / levels / welding guns, etc.), use improved SURF feature descriptor for real-time template matching. When the system detects that the worker is holding a specific tool, the corresponding BIM component operation logic is automatically activated, forming a natural interaction mode of "what you see is what you operate". This paradigm eliminates the traditional MR interface menu operation, allowing workers to focus on entity work.
[0064] Space-time driven synchronization protocol: Based on the OPC UA framework, an incremental data synchronization mechanism is designed, and innovatively uses Lamport logical clock to solve the problem of temporal consistency of multiple terminals. The construction method of space-time stamp format <t_loc, t_edge, δ> (t_loc: local time, t_edge: edge node time, δ: change sequence number) ensures reliable transmission of change instructions under 5% packet loss rate.
[0065] Lie group optimization registration algorithm: Establish a registration error model in the SE(3) manifold space, and solve the optimal transformation matrix through the Riemann optimization algorithm. The innovation lies in the adaptive construction method of the weight matrix W: according to the UWB signal strength, LiDAR point cloud density, and visual feature matching degree, the weight distribution is dynamically adjusted, so that the registration accuracy is improved by 83% compared with the traditional ICP algorithm.
[0066] The main beneficial effects are: High-precision positioning: Through multi-source data fusion, the positioning error is reduced from 4-5cm in traditional methods to within 0.8cm.
