Description

Emerging Technology Ventures Inc. and its research and developmentnbsp;partners, Navajo Technical University and New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology , are proposing to develop and demonstrate a ldquo;Digital Twin (DT) Data Acquisition System for Institutional Facility Managementrdquo;. The innovation addresses Industry 4.0 digital transformation initiatives in Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Facility Management (FM) which have created critical demand for up-to-date digitized building assets for effective implementation in predictive, condition-based maintenance (CBM) strategies in FM. The teamrsquo;s proposed use of autonomous, multi-modal systems and analytics to create DTs representing near real-time status of the built environment for FM offers an opportunity for responsive, labor efficient CBM.The effort responds to NASA#39;s digital transformation goals fornbsp;model-based solutions in the area of ldquo;Digital Twinrdquo; Institutional Management of Health/Automated Decision Support of Agency Facilities that would greatly enhance operational efficiencies in its aging facilities.
