BIMStorm: An immersive AI digital twin workshop
Concluding the Building Innovation conference, attendees are invited to the Brains & Bytes BIMStorm: Digital Twin AI Workshop.
A BIMStorm is a groundbreaking and ultimate AI event that transcends traditional academic discussions to deliver engaging, collaborative problem-solving in the architecture, engineering and construction industries.
It’s an open sandbox that will allow participants to actively engage with real-world data from building information modelling (BIM), geographic information systems (GIS), computerised maintenance management systems (CMMS), lifecycle data, digital twins and asset management.
The workshop to be immersive, bridging the gap between theory and practice and offering insights and tangible results that can be directly applied to real-world situations.
