DoT unveils an unparalleled venture 'Sangam: Digital Twin' initiative
- Recently, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) introduced the 'Sangam: Digital Twin' initiative.
- It seeks to leverage Digital Twin technology to create virtual replicas of physical assets for real-time monitoring, simulation, and analysis.
'Sangam: Digital Twin' Initiative
- The initiative is a Proof of Concept (PoC) executed in two stages
- The first stage focuses on exploratory efforts to clarify objectives and unleash potential.
- The second stage will involve practical demonstrations of specific use cases to generate a future blueprint for scaling and replicating successful strategies in future infrastructure projects.
- Objectives
- To bridge the gap between conceptualization and realization of innovative infrastructure solutions.
- To develop a model framework for facilitating faster and more effective collaboration.
- To provide a roadmap for scaling successful strategies in future infrastructure projects.
- The initiative comes against the backdrop of the past decade's breakthroughs in communication, computation and sensing in the era of techade striving for the vision 2047.
- It presents an exciting opportunity to pioneer sustainable, efficient, and innovative infrastructure solutions by harnessing the power of innovation, data, and design.
Integration of Advanced Technologies
- It integrates advanced technologies such as 5G, IoT, AI, AR/VR, AI native 6G, and next-gen computational technologies to reshape infrastructure planning and design.
- It emphasizes collaboration among public entities, infrastructure planners, tech giants, startups, and academia to achieve holistic innovation.
