The main objective of the project is to build an alternative for a physical Control Systems laboratory using the Digital Twins paradigm and extended reality. The solution is innovative, low-cost and efficient, and is able to alleviate inconvenient conditions in CS laboratories by presenting software-based three-dimensional (3D) replication of physical control objects that are mathematically modelled and can be interacted with by the user in a VR/AR environment. The dynamic models are identified, validated, and successfully deployed using the MATLAB/Simulink environment. Next, accurate replicas of control objects are prepared as 3D Models. These are optimized and deployed in an immersive environment for XR purposes.

Project results

Some tools that are used in the project were released as open-source:

The final project will also be released once completely validated in course work.
