Realizing the 1st Generation Digital Twins in Food Value Chains: Fresh Produce Digital Twins in Refrigerated Cases
Published:
I participated in a 3 Minute Thesis competition at my department, where I presented the initial stages of my Ph.D. project.
Non-destructive Temperature Monitoring of Refrigerated Food through Fusion of RGB and Infrared (IR) Imagery
Published:
The initial result of our non-invasive method for measuring the temperature of fresh produce.
Can Digital Twins Enable Sustainable Food Systems?
Published:
I participated in a 3 Minute Thesis competition held by my department. I presented and explained my Ph.D. project to a non-technical audience during the competition. I was thrilled to receive third place in the contest!
Digital Twins Reference Architecture for Sustainable Management of Fresh Produce
Published:
During the poster symposium, I shared a reference architecture outlining how to sustainably implement digital twins to manage fresh produce in a refrigerated retail case. The discussion also covered the scalability of this architecture within the fresh produce supply chain.

Enhancing Food Systems Efficiency: A Digital Twin Implementation in Refrigerated Retail Storage
Published:
I presented research on implementing digital twin technology for refrigerated retail storage systems. The presentation outlined how digital twins can enhance food systems efficiency by creating virtual representations of physical retail storage units. The discussion covered several key aspects: the challenges facing global food systems, the application of digital twin technology for temperature monitoring and inventory management, and methods to reduce energy consumption while maintaining food quality. I also demonstrated how this implementation could help address broader sustainability goals in retail food storage by enabling real-time data analysis and predictive maintenance.
Digital Twins in Retail: Optimizing Refrigerated Storage for Sustainable Food Systems
Published:
I presented a framework for implementing digital twins in retail refrigeration systems, highlighting how this technology can address critical challenges in food sustainability. The work demonstrates how digital counterparts of refrigerated display cases can enable real-time optimization, helping reduce the 3.2 trillion pounds of food waste while minimizing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in cold chain systems.
