University of Maryland, The Brendan Iribe Center for Computer Science and Innovation, College Park, MD
Bringing together the University of Maryland’s top-ranked Department of Computer Science and its renowned Institute for Advanced Computer Studies (UMIACS), the six-story building supported groundbreaking research in virtual and augmented reality, artificial intelligence, robotics, computer vision, algorithms, programming languages, and systems.
SETTY provided mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection design services for the new 215,000 GSF University of Maryland Computer Science Building. The Syyclops Digital Twin was implemented in the design phase of this project, helping to inform our design engineers. The digital twin allowed our engineers to simulate various operational scenarios, analyze system performance under different conditions, and proactively address potential design challenges before construction. This data-driven approach enhanced coordination between disciplines and optimized the design for long-term efficiency.
The 215,000 GSF building housed offices, instructional and research areas, a 5,300 SF makerspace, 785 seats of instructional space, 13 computer labs, 8 classrooms, 5 seminar rooms, and 20,000 SF of community space.
