In the second day Ahmed got to meet with Unity, where he explained to them how byanat has been using Unity in collaboration with Stereo labs for spatial analysis, in this discussion Ahmed got to learn about Digital twins, which are digital representations of physical assets, processes, systems or environments. They can be created by capturing and replicating data from the real world and using algorithms to predict possible performance outcomes, and issues – even if they are not yet seen in the real world.
