Key Responsibilities

•Assemble physical robots based on a detailed bill of materials (BOM)
•Create a virtual twin of the robots in a 3D simulation environment (e.g., Unity3D)
•Develop a system to track the robot’s lifecycle: as designed, as built, and as maintained
•Integrate real-time data streams into the digital model
•Construct a physical scaled model of a smart dairy farm with robot interaction zones (feeding, cleaning, etc.)
•Develop a digital twin of the farm, aligned with the physical layout (e.g., Unity3D)
•Implement a system to simulate and project real-time operational data onto the farm model using a beamer
•Integrate sensor feedback and behavior data into the virtual environment for monitoring and control
