Data-centric engineering is nothing new, but digital twins open up a whole new world.Digital twins use real-time data from sensors to provide a virtual representation of a physical object or system that engineers can use to monitor real-time performance, reduce maintenance costs, and predict future malfunctions.In this episode of the Create the Future podcast, we speak to Mark Girolami, Chief Scientist at The Alan Turing Institute, about his work on the world’s first 3D printed pedestrian bridge, described as a “living laboratory”. We discuss why data-centric engineers are able to make more informed decisions, hear why digital twinning will soon likely be the biggest use-case for artificial intelligence and machine learning, and hear why the best engineers are often multidisciplinary.New episodes of ‘Create the Future: An Engineering Podcast’ every other Tuesday. www.qeprize.org/podcastsFollow @qeprize on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook Hosted on Acast.
