Discover how the industrial metaverse revolutionizes manufacturing with astonishing capabilities like improving real-world actions.
But creating this system with real-world data proved extremely difficult. The system needed more training data. So the company built a digital twin of the plane instead, which generated more than 100,000 simulated images . Equipped with this wealth of simulated data and combined with real-world photographs, the system worked. And this lays the groundwork for Boeing engineers to use AR to compare the plane in front of them with its historical condition.
Simulating whole factories is one way to harness digital twins. But, really, it’s possible to create digital twins of pretty much anything – right down to individual machines. Siemens says it is working with NVIDIA to create just that – digital twins that look and behave exactly like physical machines and allow for real-time interaction. This means they'll be able to tweak a factor in the digital twin and understand exactly how the real-world machine will be affected.
Products can also be simulated to predict potential problems. Not only could this revolutionize product design, but it could also pave the way for greater insights into how existing products perform in the real world. Such information could be used to inform future product design or even predict when parts might fail. In one example, Kaeser, a maker of compressed air and vacuum products, uses digital twins to replicate its compressed air systems in use by customers.
But there’s another metaverse-related technology aiding the design process: virtual reality . Specifically, we’re talking about designing products within an immersive VR space as opposed to simply working on a screen. Imagine, for example, designing a car by immersing yourself in a VR version of the car’s interior. In the future, we can expect to see product designers increasingly don a VR headset to immerse themselves in whatever they're designing.
Designing in an immersive VR space also allows design teams to collaborate as if they’re in the same room, even when miles apart. Indeed, designers can already use collaborative design tools like NVIDIA’s Omniverse, which lets teams design together in real time as if they’re in the same space, and see changes instantly.
