Motional Digital Twin
Don’t miss the Airport of the Future’s live, full-scale Motional Digital Twin, powered by our Spatial AI Technology Partner, Outsight.
This is the first time this technology – implemented in major international airports worldwide – will be showcased at a tech event in a real-scale, live environment, demonstrating how airports accurately understand and manage passenger flows.
Using advanced 3D LiDAR sensing, Outsight’s Spatial AI platform will create a digital replica of the exhibition area, which anonymously tracks the continuous movement of people and provides actionable insights into behaviour, queue dynamics, asset utilisation and overall operational performance.
This unprecedented live experience will show why airports across five continents are adopting Motional Digital Twins to build smarter, safer and more efficient hubs.
