Implementation of IoT Hub and Digital Twins at UBT Smart and Self-Sustainable City
Session
Computer Science and Communication Engineering
Description
The rapid advancement of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies has the potential to revolutionize urban infrastructure, making cities more efficient, sustainable, and livable. This paper presents the implementation of an IoT hub integrated with digital twin technologies in the development of UBT Smart and Self-Sustainable City. The IoT hub serves as the central platform for gathering, processing, and analyzing data from a wide range of connected devices and sensors installed throughout the city. These devices monitor key urban systems such as energy usage, water management, transportation networks, waste management, and environmental conditions in real-time. By creating digital twins—virtual replicas of physical assets such as buildings, utilities, and public spaces—the city can simulate, analyze, and optimize its operations, making informed decisions on resource allocation and urban planning. The digital twin technology enables predictive maintenance, enhances the management of urban infrastructure, and contributes to minimizing environmental impacts. Additionally, the integration of renewable energy sources and smart grid systems ensures energy efficiency and sustainability. The UBT Smart City is designed to be self-sustainable, relying on advanced IoT systems to create a more resilient, eco-friendly environment. The deployment of IoT and digital twin technology offers a robust framework for achieving sustainability goals, reducing carbon footprints, and improving the overall quality of life for its residents. This paper explores the technical aspects of the IoT hub implementation, the role of digital twins in smart city management, and the benefits these technologies bring in creating a sustainable urban ecosystem. Keywords: IoT hub, digital twins, smart city, self-sustainable city, urban infrastructure, predictive maintenance, sustainability.
