Oxford University Digital Twin Training: Bringing Research, Teaching and Heritage to Life

By AVimmerse

Digital twins: detailed, real-time 3D representations of physical environments, are reshaping how universities teach, research and explore complex ideas. Globally, these immersive tools are playing a growing role in engineering, AI, heritage and advanced research programmes.

AVimmerse has supported Oxford through AR/VR workshops, digital twin development and guest teaching, helping staff and students understand and apply real-time 3D techniques in meaningful ways.

At Oxford University the digital twin training programme collaboration, introduced staff and students to practical AR/VR workflows, photogrammetry, and real-time 3D techniques.

How Oxford University Digital Twin Training Supported Staff and Students

Ajit Jaokar

Visiting Fellow, University of Oxford; Course Director, AI & Cloud/Edge Implementations

“We first worked with Keith and AVimmerse when I hired Keith to conduct a workshop on AR/VR. The workshop has since led to other engagements and I have also invited Keith into my Oxford University program for Digital Twins as a guest tutor.Keith is excellent both as a tutor and a developer in AR/VR. His knowledge and insights helped us to understand this dynamic space and build our knowledge base. I have no hesitation in recommending Keith or AVimmerse for AR/VR projects.”

Amita Kapoor

AI Author, Consultant and Keynote Speaker — attended with Oxford University colleagues

“Keith is a wonderful teacher. I attended his online classes along with other colleagues from University of Oxford and FeynLabs. It was an engaging class and we learned a lot of interesting stuff. For all things related to AR/VR I would always recommend Keith.”

Together, these two testimonials demonstrate both the academic impact and teaching quality of AVimmerse’s work across Oxford-related programmes.

Immersive Teaching That Builds Understanding

Oxford students and staff gained:

• Hands-on learning with VR, AR and real-time 3D in Unity

• An introduction to digital twin workflows

• Clarity on the technology’s applications in engineering

• Insights into industry standards and creative practices

• Confidence to experiment with immersive tools in their own work

Ajit Jaokar’s feedback highlights how the training built their internal knowledge base, while Kapoor’s review emphasises the engagement and clarity of the sessions, both crucial for adoption in academic contexts.

AVimmerse’s Approach to Digital Twin Education

Our process combines:

✔ simple conceptual explanations ✔ guided technical walkthroughs ✔ live demonstrations ✔ real-world project examples ✔ support for academic use cases.

We help educators, researchers and students understand how digital twins can support:

• Engineering and systems modelling

• Medical and training simulations

• Cultural and heritage preservation

• AI/ML visualisation

• Remote/hybrid learning environments

Results for Oxford and Beyond

AVimmerse’s teaching and collaborative input has:

• Strengthened Oxford’s digital twin teaching offering

• Expanded student and staff capability in AR/VR

• Supported wider departmental exploration of immersive tools

• Fed into ongoing research and curriculum development

• Positioned Oxford as a forward-thinking adopter of real-time technologies
  

Oxford is now better equipped to use immersive technologies across multiple disciplines, from engineering to heritage and AI.
