Keysight Technologies, Inc., announced that 6G@UT at the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) has selected Keysight’s 6G solutions to advance research in digital twins for wireless and autonomous systems. The deployment will take place in 6G@UT, which operates within UT Austin’s world-renowned Wireless Networking and Communications Group (WNCG). Digital twins are increasingly recognized as a transformative technology for 6G, enabling the creation of highly accurate, real-time virtual near-replicas of physical networks. These models allow researchers and engineers to design, test, and optimize complex communication systems in a safe, cost-effective, and scalable manner — before deploying them in the real world. At 6G@UT, researchers will explore advanced use cases of digital twins, including enhanced beamforming and adaptive connectivity in next-generation communication networks. A key area of inquiry is the creation of a "multiverse of digital twins”: parallel, heterogeneous models operating across varying fidelities and computing environments, from cloud to edge to

Asite announces that its visualisation and collaboration platform, Asite 3D Repo, has been selected for the Transport Research and Innovation Grant (TRIG). The programme is funded by the Department for Transport (DfT) and delivered by Connected Places Catapult. Asite 3D Repo is one of only 12 companies chosen from over 400 applicants.  The TRIG programme supports early-stage transport innovation, funding breakthrough ideas that can reshape the sector and accelerate smarter, greener delivery.  Asite 3D Repo’s project will create an AI-powered data validation engine that automatically checks 3D model metadata against client standards, such as the National Highways Asset Data Management Manual. By validating 3D models for naming conventions and information consistency, the AI engine eliminates manual compliance checks and streamlines workflows. This is set to help infrastructure teams avoid costly delays, all while integrating seamlessly with Common Data Environments.  “Innovative solutions will deliver quicker, greener, safer, more inclusive and smarter transport systems and services,

Siemens Smart Infrastructure has partnered with San Juan de Dios Hospital in Seville, Spain, to transform it into a smart and sustainable asset.
