SUMMARY:Digital Twins Where AI meets IoT
DESCRIPTION:Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) are enabling our world to be replicated digitally – creating Digital Twins of our cities\, cars\, homes and even ourselves. A Digital Twin is an exact replica of something in the physical world\, with a unique aim – to help improve the real-life version. \nThis workshop is organised by the School of Computing\, Ulster University and will introduce the emerging field of Digital Twins\, showcasing cutting-edge technologies and concepts at the intersection of IoT and AI. You’ll have an opportunity to get hands-on with these technologies through a number of interactive demonstrations\, covering topics such as sensor technologies\, machine vision\, robotics\, virtual/ augmented reality\, chatbots and simulation. \nThis event will take place in BC-03-115 and the Level 3 Atrium of the Ulster University Belfast Campus. \nNB: Although registration is free\, it is mandatory to obtain the visiting pass in order to access the BC building.
