Maxon has introduced a standalone AI-powered tool called Maxon Digital Twin (MDT) designed for creating digital representations of physical objects for marketing and commercial use. The company clarified that MDT uses a third-party AI agent, not trained on user works, and plans to integrate with other AI-enabled graphic apps, raising questions about future AI tools across its product lineup.
A detailed 3D digital survey of Surrey's West Horsley Place, used for preservation and visitor engagement, could lead to a digital twin that enhances conservation efforts and public interaction with historic sites.
Scientists have developed a highly detailed digital twin of Earth with a resolution of approximately 1.25 km, integrating weather and climate models using advanced supercomputers and software engineering, marking a significant breakthrough in climate prediction capabilities.
NVIDIA and SK Group are collaborating to build Korea's largest AI factory with over 50,000 GPUs, aiming to revolutionize chip manufacturing, digital twin technology, and AI development across industries, including semiconductor and telecommunications, by 2027.
Microsoft has developed a prototype light-based computer that uses light instead of digital switches, potentially making AI calculations up to 100 times more energy-efficient and faster for specific tasks, with future models capable of handling more complex problems.
Microsoft Research has developed an analog optical computer (AOC) using commercially available parts that can solve complex optimization problems and run AI workloads more efficiently and faster than traditional digital computers. The AOC has demonstrated success in banking and healthcare applications, such as optimizing financial transactions and reconstructing MRI scans, with potential for future improvements and broader use. The project emphasizes collaboration and open sharing of algorithms and digital models to accelerate development and application of this innovative computing paradigm.
OhChat is a startup creating AI-powered digital doubles of celebrities and creators, allowing users to interact with lifelike avatars for personalized and often intimate experiences, raising ethical concerns about emotional dependence and digital exploitation.
Martin Schrimpf is developing AI models to better understand and potentially control high-level brain activity, aiming to create a 'digital twin' of the brain that could revolutionize neuroscience and treatment of brain conditions, while also raising ethical considerations.
Devlin Donaldson, a CEO diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, reversed his condition and lost significant weight using a digital twin technology from Twin Health. The digital twin provided personalized health insights and real-time feedback on diet, exercise, and medication, leading to his diabetes remission and improved overall health. This precision medicine approach, which includes continuous glucose monitoring and other health tracking tools, is gaining traction for its effectiveness in managing chronic conditions.
Scientists have created a "digital twin" of Earth to simulate natural disasters and better understand the water cycle. This model, funded by the European Space Agency, uses high-resolution data from satellite observations to simulate best- and worst-case scenarios for natural disasters like flooding and landslides. The goal is to help forecast where these disasters could occur and improve water resource management. The scientists plan to expand the model to cover other regions and incorporate artificial intelligence to enhance its accuracy.
Researchers have successfully demonstrated the predictive control of fusion plasma using a digital twin control system that incorporates real-time observations and data assimilation. This new control approach, demonstrated at the Large Helical Device (LHD), allows for the accurate prediction and control of fusion plasma behavior, paving the way for advanced controls essential for the realization of fusion power generation. The system, developed by a research group led by Assistant Professor Yuya Morishita and Professor Sadayoshi Murakami of Kyoto University and other collaborators, is expected to become fundamental to fusion reactor control and has the potential to address other societal issues involving uncertain factors.
A team of scientists has used deep sea mapping to create "an exact 'Digital Twin' of the Titanic wreck for the first time," according to a press release from deep sea investigators Magellan and filmmakers Atlantic Productions. The project used 700,000 images to reconstruct the wreckage and historians believe it may provide some answers to the mysterious 1912 sinking of the luxury passenger liner that killed more than 1,500 people.
A team of scientists from Magellan Ltd. has created a "digital twin" of the Titanic, showing the wreckage of the doomed ocean liner with a level of detail that has never been captured before. The project yielded more than 16 terabytes of data, 715,000 still images, and a high-resolution video. The researchers used two submersibles to map "every millimeter" of the wreckage as well as the entire three-mile debris field. The new images have effectively removed the ocean water, allowing the wreckage to be viewed in "extraordinary detail."
The largest underwater scanning project in history has created an exact "Digital Twin" of the Titanic wreck for the first time, revealing details of the tragedy and uncovering fascinating information about what really happened to the crew and passengers on that fateful night of April 14, 1912. The project has managed to unearth details never seen before, including the serial number on the propeller. The final digital replica has captured the entire wreck, including both the bow and stern section, which had separated upon sinking in 1912. The mapping will herald the beginning of a new chapter for Titanic research and exploration.
