SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATED LAID-OUT PLANNING OF A LAID-OUT MATERIAL

Abstract

The present invention relates to a system (100) for the automated layout planning and documentation of flooring materials tailored to room floor plans / areas. The system (100) comprises a data acquisition unit (102) that uses LiDAR technology to capture the room dimensions and / or structure and creates an Industry Foundation Class (IFC) file containing detailed floor plan or area data along with information about floors, walls, ceilings, doors, windows, heating pipes, and / or radiators. A processor (104) extracts the floor plan or area from the IFC file and creates a graphical representation of the layout plan by receiving flooring element dimensions and layout parameters from a user interface. The user can modify the flooring element arrangement by, for example, cutting out sections, preferably circular ones, from individual flooring elements, thereby enabling personalized design solutions.In addition, the processor (104) generates a comprehensive layout plan that includes graphical representations of the layout and tabular specifications for each component, providing precise instructions for the layout process, such as individual markings or numbering for each component. This innovative approach improves design visualization, optimizes material usage, and facilitates efficient decision-making during layout planning.
