Digital Twin Simulation
Digital Twin Simulation is a process in architecture where a digital copy of a building is made and connected to real-time data from the physical building. This digital copy can show how the building is using energy, how people are moving inside, and how the building is reacting to weather. Designers can use this information to make quick changes to lighting, heating, or even the layout before making any physical changes. Digital Twin Simulation can help architects test how a building will perform in different situations, like during a big event or a heatwave, without waiting for those events to happen in real life. This makes it easier to spot ways to save energy or improve comfort for people using the building.
