Cloud-based Digital Twin

/in , , , /by

Clients are one click away from interacting with a Digital Twin model on their personal devices. No installation is required.

Demonstration of XR-Lab’s project on cloud-based Digital Twin(DT), accessible through mobile devices. Multiple users can interact with a complicated DT model through touch screens. Clients do not need to install apps and can access the content with a simple URL and web browser via personal IOS or Android mobile devices and tablets. Photorealistic renderings are streamed to clients with high-frame-rate. Also, our DT model integrates Building Information Modeling, Metadata, IOT sensor data, 360 image/video, and web3D content.

Future of Work: Understanding the interrelationships between humans and technology to improve the quality of work-life in smart buildings.

Grant: #SES-2026594 PI:  David W. Wendell. co-PIs: Harfmann, Anton; Fry, Michael; Rebola, Claudia; co-Is: Pravin Bhiwapurkar, Ann Black, Annulla Linders, Tamara Lorenz, Nabil Nassif, John Seibert, Ming Tang, Nicholas Williams, and Danny T.Y. Wu.  01-01-2021 -12-31-2021 National Science Foundation $149,720. Awarded Level: Federal 

The objective of this proposed planning project is to mobilize a multidisciplinary team of researchers to develop the methodology for collecting, analyzing, and correlating existing discipline-specific research and data about buildings and the workers in them in search of interactions that have not yet been uncovered. Specifically, we will explore the interrelationships among 1) overall building performance, 2) indoor and outdoor environmental conditions, 3) physical health, and 4) satisfaction with the work environment.

Ming Tang worked on the Digital Twin model to assemble multiple historical sensor data sets into an interactive 3D model.
