Active Digital Twin <> Integrated Intelligent Infrastructure
Digital twins are a virtual representation of a city, port, highway, vehicle or object, constructed only by a digital database. A digital twin could vary in representation from simple localization metadata, to high fidelity visual and dynamic modeling. This means, twins can evolve over time, becoming more and more representative of the real world counterpart. Realtime updates, state changes, and abnormality alerts are all simplistic use cases for digital twins.
Weekly call on Fridays at 2:30 PM EST.
Presentations from Industry, Government, and Academia.
Purpose: establish programs to develop Active Digital Twins within dozens of locations.
Request to join the weekly call.
Establishing the nation’s first Active Digital Twin. City of Austin, ProjectConnect, TxDOT I-35 Intelligent Expansion, TMD, SH130, Loop 1, Downtown Districts.
Active Digital Twin enables:
-
Design, engineering, planning of the various concrete, asphalt projects as well as intelligent infrastructure deployments.
-
Simulation and modeling of critical services like wireless, lidar, radar, visual, resilient APNT, . . .
-
Multimodal simulation and modeling of cars, bus, rail, truck, tractors, . . optimizations.
-
Support for Public Safety, and emergency management. Overall operational views and security. Having a 24/7 quick response at any location (safely executed in the avigation easements).
-
Simulation and modeling of thousands of small autonomous shuttles (i.e. picking up grandma at her house and bringing her to the Dr.).
-
Support for routine inspections of our billions of dollars of critical infrastructure.
-
Supporting risk-mitigated deployments of rovers and drones delivering groceries or restaurant items to neighborhoods.
-
AR/VR concerts, events, gaming, software development for community groups – City of Austin community engagement
-
Verified transactions based on geolocation
-
Avigation easements for VMT of ground and low-altitude vehicles
-
Support for retail shops to support AR advertising. i.e. people could see floating ads on their phones while pointed down 6th street.
