3D UNIV+RSES platform demonstrates virtual twins, immersive VR and connected systems for next-generation industries
Barcelona, Spain | March 2, 2026-Dassault Systèmes has unveiled its vision for scalable industrial artificial intelligence at Mobile World Congress 2026 (MWC 2026), presenting immersive demonstrations of how connected industries can leverage AI and virtual twin technology to accelerate digital transformation.
Exhibiting in Hall 4, Stand 4B25, the company is showcasing its 3D UNIV+RSES platform, positioning it as a next-generation environment where virtual twins, immersive computing and industrial AI converge to support the design, production and lifecycle management of complex systems.
From Pilot to Industrial Scale
Dassault Systèmes’ demonstrations focus on helping industries move AI-enabled innovation from experimental pilot projects to full operational scale. The platform integrates product, infrastructure and environmental intelligence to support high-performance sectors including:
- Data centers
- Semiconductors
- 5G networks
- Autonomous systems
Through immersive virtual reality (VR), spatial computing, connected devices and AI-driven simulation, the company is highlighting how organisations can master complexity, optimise performance and build resilient infrastructure.
Immersive Demonstration Highlights
AI-Optimised Networks in a Virtual City
One of the centrepieces is an immersive VR experience set within an AI-generated city environment. Using virtual twins, the system integrates product and infrastructure intelligence into a real-time inspection, diagnostics and repair workflow. The demonstration illustrates how telecom operators and urban planners can ensure safer, more efficient connectivity networks.
Data Center Design and Lifecycle Optimisation
Spatial immersion tools allow participants to explore virtual twins of data centers, examining layout configurations, airflow dynamics and equipment placement before physical construction begins.
By validating decisions virtually, organisations can:
- Reduce operational risk
- Improve energy efficiency
- Optimise performance across the lifecycle
This approach addresses growing demand for scalable, sustainable data infrastructure driven by AI and cloud computing expansion.
Virtual and Real Robotics Integration
In a hands-on demonstration, Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform is paired with THEMIS, a robot developed by Westwood Robotics.
The showcase demonstrates how complex robotic behaviours can be virtually designed, engineered and validated before real-world deployment, reducing development cycles and improving reliability.
Executive Thought Leadership
In addition to exhibition demonstrations, Dassault Systèmes executives are participating in panel discussions at the MWC “Manufacturing and Production Summit.” These sessions explore how AI, automation and virtual twin ecosystems are reshaping industrial production models and global supply chains.
Strategic Positioning in Industrial AI
With industries facing rising operational complexity, sustainability pressures and rapid technological convergence, Dassault Systèmes is positioning its 3D UNIV+RSES environment as a scalable framework for industrial intelligence.
By combining virtual creation, simulation, validation and real-time operational feedback, the company aims to enable enterprises to innovate faster while improving resilience and environmental performance.
MWC 2026 runs from March 2–5 in Barcelona, bringing together global leaders in connectivity, digital infrastructure and emerging technologies.
