Dublin City University (DCU) has teamed up with Dublin City Council, Insight SFI Research Centre for Data Analytics, and Bentley Systems to push the boundaries of digital twins.
DCU sought to advance its existing Smart DCU programme, which is using the university campus as a test site to explore and evaluate the latest advances in smart city solutions. This collaborative initiative is investigating the power of AI and immersive digital twin technology using the university as a city microcosm for developing intelligent and sustainable urban spaces.
Kieran Mahon, Smart DCU project facilitator at the university, says: “The DCU campus [is] an ideal living laboratory for this purpose, as it replicates the essential features of a real city, including accommodations, roads, retail areas, and other urban amenities, albeit on a smaller scale.”
