Academy of Interdisciplinary Studies Division of Integrative Systems and Design 216 Smart Interactive Building and Spatial Design Supervisor: XIANG Changying / ISD Student: HUANG Zhenghao / ELEC Course: UROP 1000, Summer Buildings consume more than 90% electricity usages in Hong Kong. Furthermore, it is imperative to deal with the large amount of carbon emission and harness more renewable energy in high-density communities in Hong Kong. In this paper, I will introduce Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) systems integrated with Modular Integrated Construction (MiC) public residential housing units which is an interdisciplinary R&D project led by a HKUST research team and collaborated with SOCAM in Hong Kong, covering the disciplines of architecture, building engineering, PV technology, material science, color psychology, etc., and my learning outcomes will also be presented. The project aims to provide low-carbon, smart and healthy public housing for Hong Kong residents. Smart Interactive Building and Spatial Design Supervisor: XIANG Changying / ISD Student: ZHANG Yue / ISD Course: UROP 1000, Summer In Hong Kong buildings consume more than 90% electricity usages and are the main source of carbon production. It’s in urgent need to reduce the carbon emission and utilize more renewable energy in highdensity communities. In this paper, Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) systems which integrated with Modular Integrated Construction (MIC) public residential housing units, covering the disciplines of architecture, building engineering, PV technology, material science, etc. will be introduced. novel semitransparent PV windows, colorful BIPV claddings, Dummy panels in shading areas are the main parts of this system. The system aims to provide low carbon, smart and healthy public housing for Hong Kong residents. This project is cooperated with SOCAM. ChatGPT for CAD and Graphics Design Supervisor: YEUNG Sai Kit / ISD Student: LAI Kam Wai / ISD Course: UROP 3100, Fall UROP 4100, Spring This project report is the continuation of UROP3100. In this semester, new functions and features including text-to-mesh models, blender chatbot and user tests are added. An interim meeting with the HKUST CEI GEN AI was held to report current progress and collect feedback and suggestions. We would like to tackle the problem that students lack sufficient digital design education which incorporates generative AI tools, this would hinder their ability to effectively utilize CAD and graphics design. We provide a rapid CAD modelgenerated plugin in BLENDER with simple text inputs. After the software development this semester, we planned to collaborate with ISDN 4000S and ISDN 2300/2400 to carry out the user test. The next step would be user feedback collection and advancing the CAD generative tool by implementing it into the field of VR scene creation.
