FREMONT, CA: Dassault Systemes, the 3DEXPERIENCE Company, provides business and people with virtual universes to imagine sustainable innovations proclaims its participation in a landmark smart office building project in cooperation with Rhomberg Group, Zumtobel Group, Bosch Software Innovations, and Modcam AB. With this project, Dassault Systemes aims to introduce more sustainable management of homes, commercial buildings and factories to smart cities of the future.

The pilot project at the LifeCycle Tower (LCT) ONE building in Dornbirn, Austria owned by Rhomberg Group and equipped with a state-of-the-art Zumtobel lighting solution and smart controls system, is ideal to turn into an innovative connected building targeting the highest standards of sustainability and user comfort.

The LCT ONE project from 3DEXPERIENCity virtually represents, extend and improve the real world and manage data, processes and people of sustainable cities it addresses architecture, infrastructure, planning, resources and inhabitants so that stakeholders can virtually explore a city’s future and its effects on its citizens and the planet.

The project offers a unified virtual environment for design, simulation and seamless exchange of information between electronics, mechatronics and sensors of each system in smart objects, buildings or vehicles providing real-time insights into the building’s usage and technical health to optimize energy efficiency and occupancy.

“The IoT is evolving into the ‘Internet of Experiences,’ where devices are digitally connected to the physical world around them to become part of a living experience shaped by interactions among people, places and objects,” says Monica Menghini, Executive Vice President, Chief Strategy Officer, Dassault Systemes. “By cooperating with Bosch Software Innovations and other innovators in their respective industries, we can demonstrate how sensor information can be easily harnessed from any big data repository in real time and linked to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform’s realistic representation of a virtual environment. In this case, the 3DEXPERIENCE building actually becomes the master reference for planning, simulating and operating the estate. Sustainable cities can become a reality sooner than we think.”
