Abstract: Welcome to the 20th International Conference on Construction Applications of Virtual Reality (CONVR 2020). This year we are meeting on-line due to the current Coronavirus pandemic. The overarching theme for CONVR2020 is "Enabling the development and implementation of Digital Twins". CONVR is one of the world-leading conferences in the areas of virtual reality, augmented reality and building information modelling. Each year, more than 100 participants from all around the globe meet to discuss and exchange the latest developments and applications of virtual technologies in the architectural, engineering, construction and operation industry (AECO). The conference is also known for having a unique blend of participants from both academia and industry. This year, with all the difficulties of replicating a real face to face meetings, we are carefully planning the conference to ensure that all participants have a perfect experience. We have a group of leading keynote speakers from industry and academia who are covering up to date hot topics and are enthusiastic and keen to share their knowledge with you. CONVR participants are very loyal to the conference and have attended most of the editions over the last eighteen editions. This year we are welcoming numerous first timers and we aim to help them make the most of the conference by introducing them to other participants.

Low-cost virtual reality environment for engineering and construction
Thomas Hilfert,Markus König +1 more
TL;DR: A way to build a low-cost, highly immersive virtual reality environment for engineering and construction applications, and a method to simplify and partly automate the process of reusing digital building models, which are already used in construction, to create virtual scenes, instead of having to do parallel content creation for visualization.
Musculoskeletal disorders in construction: A review and a novel system for activity tracking with body area network.
TL;DR: An in-depth review of existing assessment frameworks used in practice for the evaluation of human body motion and a new system to detect and characterise unsafe postures of construction workers based on the measurement of motion data from wearable wireless IMUs integrated in a body area network are introduced.

A graph convolutional neural network for classification of building patterns using spatial vector data
TL;DR: A novel graph convolution is introduced by converting it from the vertex domain into a point-wise product in the Fourier domain using the graph Fourier transform and convolution theorem, which achieves a significant improvement over existing methods.

Hook vs. hope: How to enhance customer engagement through gamification
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored how gamification fosters customer engagement and found that hope is more strongly associated with customer engagement than the psychological condition of compulsion, which even exerts a negative impact.
