Abstract

The sustainability of building infrastructure has been a growing critical global concern. However, stakeholders often overlook the sustainability aspect of systems in their everyday lives. This paper presents an exploration of the potential of augmented reality (AR) technology as a tool for enhancing public engagement around sustainable systems in buildings. We introduce an innovative approach to address the challenge of gap between sustainable infrastructure and user awareness. Through data collection such as access counts, usage duration, and user feedback, we can evaluate the effectiveness of AR applications in improving awareness and engagement in sustainability. This study illustrates how AR technology can facilitate a deeper connection between the public and sustainable systems, thus paving the way for a more environmentally friendly society.
