description | Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, prevention and control measures became normalized, prompting the development of campuses from digital to intelligent, eventually evolving to become wise. Current cutting-edge technologies include big data, Internet of Things, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence drive campus innovation, but there are still problems of unintuitive scenes, lagging monitoring information, untimely processing, and high operation and maintenance costs. Based on this, this study proposes the use of digital twin technology to digitally construct the physical campus scene, fully digitally represent it, accurately map the physical campus to the virtual campus with real-time sensing, and remotely control it to achieve the reverse control of the twin virtual campus to the physical campus. The research is guided by the theoretical model proposed by the digital twin technology, using UAV tilt photography and 3D modelling to collaboratively build the virtual campus scene. At the design stage, the interactive channel of the system is developed based on Unity3D to the realize real-time monitoring, decision making and prevention of dual spatial data. A design scheme of the spiral optimization system life cycle is formed. The modules of the smart campus system were evaluated using a system usability scale based on student experience. The experimental results show that the virtual-real campus system can enhance school management and teaching, providing important implications for promoting the development and application of campus intelligent systems. |
