HELIX

HELIX, formerly Flux, was the first spin-out of Google X. Initially focused on generative building design to automate planning and design of sustainable buildings, HELIX pivoted in 2019 to attack the high cost and complexity of digitizing buildings. Based in Oakland, CA, HELIX built the HELIX Creator platform to enable architects, engineers, builders, and owner-operators to use LiDAR and photogrammetry to capture accurate building geometry and convert it into usable plans and models. HELIX user... s need accurate 2D and 3D information and access to documents and data related to the building without delays. HELIX is used to evaluate buildings' potential, plan for renovation, document buildings in detail for disaster planning and more. HELIX believes that for Digital Twins to achieve their potential the data must be accurate, intuitive to access and easy to keep up to date.More
