Digital Twin Lab
The TAMIDS Digital Twin Lab (DTL) aims to develop innovative visualization, computing, and networking technologies and efficient theory/data-driven modeling methods to speed up the creation and deployment of digital twins for a wide spectrum of real-world applications.

ARM-MIP Self-Driving Lab
Texas A&M’s Digital Twin Lab is helping build the digital foundation for ARM-MIP, the NSF-funded self-driving metals laboratory. By integrating visualization, data-driven models, and AI-enabled workflows, the lab will connect autonomous experiments to faster, more transparent materials discovery nationwide.
