en.Wedoany.com Reported - Siemens has recently provided a software license to the University of the Sunshine Coast (UniSC), enabling students and researchers to use the same artificial intelligence digital twin and simulation software utilized by some of the world's most innovative organizations, including Oracle Red Bull Racing, NASA, the United States Navy, Ducati, and others.

This license aims to support UniSC's focus on helping Southeast Queensland become a leading innovation hub, leveraging rapid design, prototyping, and advanced digital innovation to go from local to global.

The license includes Siemens' Designcenter and Tecnomatix software, which are also used by other regional innovators with global impact, such as HeliMods, Space Machines Company, Emirates Team New Zealand, the Australian Submarine Company (ASC), and Rocket Lab. Students will gain hands-on experience in how industrial-grade AI is integrated into modern engineering environments to enhance productivity and streamline complex processes.

The license also includes Capital software, an industry leader for electrical system design, widely used in aerospace, automotive, defense, and other industries requiring complex electrical systems that can be integrated into product and manufacturing design.

UniSC Chancellor and President Professor Helen Bartlett welcomed the license, stating that collaboration between industry and academia is crucial for strengthening local innovation to achieve global scale.

Through digital twin technology and related tools, students will gain practical experience using engineering and manufacturing platforms, including Designcenter, Capital, and Tecnomatix, developing practical skills in design, simulation, manufacturing planning, and execution, while leveraging AI-assisted features such as Microsoft Copilot integration. These tools enable semi-automation of key workflows, including bill of materials creation, manufacturing planning, module definition, and simulation activities.
