Digital twin simulations have been simmering for half a century. But the past decade’s advances in GPUs, AI and software platforms are heating up their adoption amid this higher-fidelity era of more immersive experiences. A digital twin is a virtual representation - a true-to-reality simulation of physics and materials - of a real-world physical asset or system, which is continuously updated.
Digital twins aren’t just for inanimate objects and people. They can be a virtual representation of computer networking architecture used as a sandbox for cyberattack simulations. They can replicate a fulfillment center process to test out human-robot interactions before activating certain robot functions in live environments. Digital Twins can help maintain a healthy supply chain to ensure optimal performance, predict climate change by accurately mapping climate development as well as extreme weather, and even prepare the warfighter for the future fight. We’re right at the beginning of this transition into reality, much as AI became viable and created an explosion of possibilities. The applications are as wide as the imagination.
Join these senior leaders to discuss their vision and real world application of digital twins to enable their missions.
