Digital Twins and Virtual Reality (VR) are technologies that are gaining importance in engineering, design and production. Digital Twins, or virtual representations of physical objects or systems, allow for precise analysis of their functioning in real time, which facilitates monitoring, diagnostics and optimization. In turn, Virtual Reality offers the possibility of immersive design and process simulation, which changes the way new products are created and tested. During the panel, we will look at how these technologies affect the future of engineering, design and production, what benefits their implementation brings, and what challenges the industry faces in the context of introducing these advanced tools into common use.
