This characteristic of AR could be used to alert construction workers to avoid potential safety issues such as struck-by accidents and near-misses. Therefore, this paper proposes a near-miss alerting framework for construction equipment that utilizes an AR interface driven by reality and BIM models. The framework includes the 3D virtual environment generation, AR real-time localization and object interaction, near-miss detection, and AR visualization. We developed struck-by incident scenarios with construction equipment and BIM models in a virtual environment that could be used with AR devices in the real world. The AR system includes a location-based near-miss detection method that detects moving objects around the user and alerts them through the AR interface. The system is tested in real-world settings, and the preliminary results show that AR could potentially enhance situational awareness for construction workers.conference paper10.1061/9780784485231.0312-s2.0-85184279632https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85184279632
