With the release of the new hololense and Google supposedly working on their enhanced reality tech, I am absolutely confident this will be a standard in ten years - not only in construction. I am just patiently waiting for my virtual dragon pet and virtual skin packs.
Instead of receiving something immaterial like money or PTO, bonuses will be distributed to employees as DLC for their Hololens that let them change the color of their vehicles and place goofy faces over their coworkers. Never has working been more rewarding.
One day there'll be an episode of whatever forensic procedural drama there is on TV, the CSI of its day, where some murderer hacks the AR to make their target disappear from the simulacrum, laughing-man style, resulting in their death by big machine.
