At the moment of the AI fire, the design business is not only compressed in profit margins, but also facing a situation of industry reshuffle. In the past two years, there has been an increasing demand for BIM and digitalization engineering projects, and digital twins, as a part of the industrial chain, have gradually become the core business of major design institutes. As one of the key core technology applications in the development of the digital economy, digital twins have entered a stage of comprehensive acceleration of high growth under the dual opportunities of favorable national digital transformation policies and domestic substitution. According to the "2023 China Digital Twin Industry Research Report" released by iResearch, the scale of China's digital twin market in 2022 will be 10.4 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 350%, and the domestic market size is expected to reach 37.5 billion yuan in 2025.
But pioneering a digital twin business is no easy feat. However, most enterprises face the following dilemmas when developing digital twin projects.
The capital investment is large
From the product, scene art, UI, front-end, back-end, testing, etc., a complete team and high-end computers require a large amount of capital reserves.
The volume of data is high
OSGB and 3D models are large, and there are many 3D model formats in the factory, and the operation is not smooth or even collapsed.
The threshold for development is high
Complex interaction logic requires at least 5 years of development experience.
Combined, the development of digital twins can easily fall into the trap of low growth, low profits, and difficulty in scaling. This is only a matter of the project beginning to enter the implementation stage, in the bidding stage, the competition of the digital twin project is not an exaggeration to describe it as "rolling out of the sky", I wish that the results would be directly released in 1 week, and the bidding is equal to the overnight is already the default unspoken rule of workers. However, when Xiaobai stumbled on the game engine, the old fritters had fully embraced the zero-** development tool. By choosing the right platform and combining it with its own industry advantages, you can optimize the operation mode of your existing business at low cost, or develop a new business line to maximize your business value. This is also the growth logic of the incremental market after CIMPRO has helped 500 companies expand their digital twin business. The large-scale GPT-4 has brought about a change in productivity in the AI era, with the vision of "everyone is a developer in the AI era", through the self-developed space-time base engine PDG and Zero** The digital twin engineering development platform CIMpro Twin Master breaks through the bottleneck of large-scale engineering digital twin development, explores a new business model for digital twin exploration from high-definition development to large-scale exploration, helps partners take a key step towards large-scale digital twin business in the development industry, and provides partners with the key to opening the incremental market of digital twins. As a digital software developer deeply engaged in the fields of urban architecture, water conservancy and environment, energy and power, petrochemical industry, Zan 27 has delivered more than 300 digital twin projects for many system integrators, engineering design institutes, and leading units, such as Shanghai Yangpu District Urban Operation Management Center, State Grid, China Power Construction and other enterprises. Based on the spatio-temporal base generation engine PDG with AIGC technology and the zero-** development platform CIMPRO Twin, it has provided digital transformation solutions for 500 enterprises.
Digital twin, C s or B S?With the continuous improvement of H5 technology, the BS architecture provides a lighter and more device-friendly development environment. Both developers and software vendors prefer BS or WebGL technology. The BS architecture does improve the user experience as a whole, but when processing a large amount of data and complex calculations, it may cause problems such as lag and crash when affected by the performance of the browser, so there are still large technical barriers in realizing the real-time linkage and mapping function between 2D business data and 3D models. Developing a digital twin project through BS does lower the development threshold, but in contrast, developing a digital twin based on the client can make better use of the resources of the local computer, improve performance and efficiency, and have a strong advantage in handling large-scale scenarios.
In general, there is no standard answer to which is better or worse, only a more suitable technical path. The performance of C S is more suitable for projects with hundreds of G models. BS's development environment is more suitable for projects with small data volumes and low demand for real-time twin data. CIMpro Twin Master + PDG opens the industry incremental marketCimpro Twin Master is a zero-** engineering twin one-stop development platform, by nearly 100 developers from Autodesk, Dassault and other companies, based on the self-developed digital twin graphics engine Picimos six years of research and development of hundreds of iterations, to create an urban CIM, power, water conservancy industry development platform and low-cost solutions, committed to allowing users to not write 1 line**, efficient completion of digital twin development, to help engineering projects in planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance and other aspects of the digital transformation.
As a one-stop development platform, CIMpro Digital Twin provides functions such as model import, scene editing, weather environment, UI charts, data access, interactive development, release and deployment, etc., including the whole process of digital twin development. At the same time, after years of industry precipitation, CIMPRO has also accumulated a wealth of industry model libraries and development components.
In addition, for the problem of large terrain generation, the spatio-temporal base generation engine PDG of Drifting can semantically analyze remote sensing images based on AI deep learning technology to create a model. Based on massive model training, PDG can vectorize and extract 3,000 square kilometers of ground, water surface, roads, buildings and other elements within 1 hour, and automatically generate city-level 3D model scenes through the matching rules intelligently generated by AI algorithms, quickly build engineering digital twin base plates, and greatly reduce the cost of base generation.
According to the characteristics of the infrastructure engineering industry, CIMPRO has continuously iterated and achieved the following technological breakthroughs:(1) Common 3D and GIS data are compatibleThe platform supports multi-format import of BIM, CAD, and UMAP, which solves the problems of incompatibility, import, and lack of fluency in the development of large-scale model data. Combined with GIS capabilities and basic scene editing capabilities, it greatly optimizes the scene expression of BIM models and provides real-time rendering close to the real world.
(2) Real-time dynamic twinningReal-time sensor data, real-time mapping of "geometry, physics, attributes, behaviors, rules" and other information of physical entities or complex systems in the digital space, building multi-dimensional dynamic virtual models, realizing true twins, and assisting scientific decision-making.
(3) Decoupling and easy integrationCIMpro Twin Master is composed of C S-end scene editor, B S-end interface editor, and B S-end back-end data background, which supports decoupling and integration with the user's own UI low-** editor, data background, and Internet of Things middle platform. It can also be integrated into the user's existing information system as a capability supplement. In layman's terms, a new system can be formed according to any combination of development needs. (4) Integration of editing and publishingIn the past, when developing with a game engine, even if it was only a small diagram that was modified, it required a long packaging and delivery time, and it was not possible to respond quickly to customer opinions. The integration of editing and publishing of CIMPRO allows technicians to quickly iterate the version according to customer needs at the project deployment site and efficiently deliver the project.
