While pursuing digitalization and paperless projects, the construction industry needs to settle on how to make the most of digitized data and information. On-site workers, who currently rely on paper documents to check and review design and construction plans, will need alternative ways to efficiently access the information without using any paper. Augmented Reality is a potential solution where the information customized to a user is aligned with the physical world. This paper proposes the Augmented Reality framework to deliver the information on on-site resources (e.g., workers and equipment) using head-mounted devices. The proposed framework was developed by interoperating Augmented Reality-supported devices and a digital twin platform in which all information related to ongoing tasks is accumulated in real-time. On-site resources appearing in the user's field of view are automatically detected by an object detection algorithm and then assigned to the corresponding information by matching the data in the digital twin platform. Preliminary experiments show the feasibility of the proposed framework. Worker detection results can be visualized on HoloLens 2 in near real-time, and the matching process obtained the accuracy greater than 88%.

Recently, the demand for more precise and demand-oriented customized spatial information is increasing due to the 4th industrial revolution. In particular, the use of 3D spatial information and digital twins which based on spatial information, and research for solving social problems in cities by using such information are continuously conducted. Globally, non-face-to-face services are increasing due to COVID-19, and the national policy direction is also rapidly progressing digital transformation, digitization and virtualization of the Korean version of the New Deal, which means that 3D spatial information has become an important factor to support it. In this study, physical objects for cities defined by world organizations such as ISO, OGC, and ITU were selected and the target of the 3D object model was limited to buildings. Based on CityGML2.0, the data collected using a drone suitable for building a 3D model of a small area is selected to be updated through road name address and building ledger, which are administrative information related to this, and LoD2.5 data is constructed and urban space. It was intended to suggest an object update method for a 3D building among data.

Digital Twin is a technology that creates a photocopy of real-world objects on a computer and analyzes the past and present operational status by fusing the structure, context, and operation of various physical systems with property information, and predicts the future society's countermeasures. In particular, 3D rendering technology (UAS, LiDAR, GNSS, etc.) is a core technology in digital twin. so, the research and application are actively performed in the industry in recent years. However, UAS (Unmanned Aerial System) and LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) have to be solved by compensating blind spot which is not reconstructed according to the object shape. In addition, the terrestrial LiDAR can acquire the point cloud of the object more precisely and quickly at a short distance, but a blind spot is generated at the upper part of the object, thereby imposing restrictions on the forward digital twin modeling. The UAS is capable of modeling a specific range of objects with high accuracy by using high resolution images at low altitudes, and has the advantage of generating a high density point group based on SfM (Structure-from-Motion) image analysis technology. However, It is relatively far from the target LiDAR than the terrestrial LiDAR, and it takes time to analyze the image. In particular, it is necessary to reduce the accuracy of the side part and compensate the blind spot. By re-optimizing it after fusion with UAS and Terrestrial LiDAR, the residual error of each modeling method was compensated and the mutual correction result was obtained. The accuracy of fusion-based 3D model is less than 1cm and it is expected to be useful for digital twin construction.

This paper presents the integration of Digital twin and Blockchain-based Supply Chain Management (DB-SCM) in a smart warehouse to create a more efficient, secure, and transparent facility. The process involves creating a digital twin of the warehouse using sensors and IoT devices and then integrating it with a blockchain-based supply chain management system to connect all stakeholders. All data are collected and tracked in real-time as goods move through the warehouse, and smart contracts are automatically executed to ensure accountability for all parties involved. The study also highlights the critical role of effective supply chain management in modern business operations and the significance of smart warehouses, which leverage advanced technologies such as robotics, AI, and data analytics to optimize warehouse operations. Later, we discuss the importance of digital twins, which allow for creating a virtual representation of a physical object or system, and their potential to revolutionize a wide range of industries. Therefore, DB-SCM offers numerous benefits, including enhanced efficiency, improved customer satisfaction, and increased sustainability, and provides a valuable case study for organizations seeking to optimize their supply chain operations.

With the recent development of IoT and artificial intelligence technology, research and applications for optimization of real-world problems by collecting and analyzing data in real-time have increased in various fields such as manufacturing and smart city. Representatively, the digital twin platform that supports real-time synchronization in both directions with the virtual world digitized from the real world has been drawing attention. In this paper, we define a digital twin concept and propose a digital twin platform prototype that links real objects and predicted results from the virtual world in real-time by utilizing the oneM2M-based IoT platform. In addition, we implement an application that can predict accidents from object collisions in advance with the prototype. By performing predefined test cases, we present that the proposed digital twin platform could predict the crane's motion in advance, detect the collision risk, perform optimal controls, and that it can be applied in the real environment.

In the machine vision inspection equipment, diameter measurement is important process in inspection of cylindrical object. However, machine vision inspection equipment requires complex algorithm processing such as camera distortion correction and perspective distortion correction, and the increase in processing time and cost required for precise diameter measurement. In this paper, we proposed the algorithm for diameter measurement of cylindrical object using the laser displacement sensor. In order to fit circle for given four input outer points, grid search algorithms using root-mean-square error and mean-absolute error are applied and compared. To solve the limitations of the grid search algorithm, we finally apply the singular-value-decomposition based circle fitting algorithm. In order to compare the performance of the algorithms, we generated the pseudo data of the outer points of the cylindrical object and applied each algorithm. As a result of the experiment, the grid search using root-mean-square error confirmed stable measurement results, but it was confirmed that real-time processing was difficult as the execution time was 10.8059 second. The execution time of mean-absolute error algorithm was greatly improved as 0.3639 second, but there was no weight according to the distance, so the result of algorithm is abnormal. On the other hand, the singular-value-decomposition method was not affected by the grid and could not only obtain precise detection results, but also confirmed a very good execution time of 0.6 millisecond.

Due to COVID-19, many paradigm shifts in existing manufacturing facilities and the expansion of non-face-to-face services are accelerating worldwide. A representative technology is digital twin technology. Such digital twin technology, which existed only conceptually in the past, has recently become feasible with the construction of a 5G-based network. Accordingly, this paper designed and implemented a part of the USB process to enable digital twins based on OPC UA communication, which is a standard interlocking structure, between real object objects and virtual reality-based USB process in accordance with this paradigm change. By reflecting the physical characteristics of real objects together, it is possible to simulate real-time synchronization of these with real objects. In the future, this can be applied to various industrial fields, and it is expected that it will be possible to reduce costs for decision-making and prevent dangerous accidents.

In response to the recent 4th industrial revolution, the demand for 3D object models in the latest fields of digital twin, autonomous driving, and VR/AR, as well as the existing fields such as city, construction, transportation, and energy has increased significantly. It is expected that the demand for 3D object models with various precision from LOD1 to LOD4 will increase more and more in various industry fields. However, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, and the local government and the private sector have partially built 3D object models of different precisions for some specific regions because of the huge cost. Therefore, this study proposes a feasible plan that can solve the cost problem in generating 3D object models for the whole territory. For our purpose, we first analyzed usage, demand, generation technology and generation cost for 3D object models. Afterwards, we proposed LOD3 model generation plan for all territory using automatic 3D object model generation technology based on image matching. Additionally, we supplemented the proposed plan by using LOD4 generation plan for landmarks and LOD2 generation plan non-urban area. In the near future, we expect this would be a great help in establishing a feasible and effective 3D object model generation plan for the whole country.
