Future Technologies Series: Demystifying Digital Twin (CanopyLAB)

The digital twin has been touted as a top strategic technology trend. However, many are yet to embrace this game-changing innovation. So, join us to learn about this technology and its applications. Anything that generates power today will be connected to the Internet. The IoT has enhanced businesses, machines and processes. To power the IoT world, Digital Twin is a new and upcoming paradigm.

Unit 1: What Is Digital Twin?
Unit 2: How Does a Digital Twin Work?
Unit 3: Applications of Digital Twin Technology
Unit 4: The Future Opportunities of Digital Twin Technology
The concept of digital twin represents the convergence of virtual and physical world. In some cases, it is referred to as the digital reflection of the physical assets that powers next generation Artificial Intelligence. In other cases, it is a digital map that powers Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) applications. Collectively, the units in this course is a step-by-step guide to understanding Digital Twin and its applications. With the help of the syllabus, exercises and video lectures in each unit, you will be gaining a strong understanding of Digital Twin and how it’s related to your future learning.

Interfacing with the Arduino (Coursera)

Arduino senses the environment by receiving inputs from add-on devices such as sensors, and can control the world around it by adjusting lights, motors, and other actuators. In this class you will learn how and when to use the different types of sensors and how to connect them to the Arduino. Since the external world uses continuous or analog signals and the hardware is digital you will learn how these signals are converted back-and-forth and how this must be considered as you program your device. You'll also learn about the use of Arduino-specific shields and the shields software libraries to interface with the real world.
