Digital twins are dynamic, data driven, multi-dimensional digital replicas of a physical entity.
They encompass potential or actual physical assets, processes, people, places, systems, devices and the natural environment.
In contrast to traditional digital models, digital twins can connect with the physical ‘twin’ they model, changing alongside the physical system via real-time sensors and actuators.
Sensors [DISPUTED] in office buildings for example, can adjust lights, blinds and temperature to balance optimal working environment with energy consumption, with the digital twin managing and adjusting in near real-time.
Traditionally, industry has created digital twins by retrospectively mapping, scanning, surveying, digitising or developing a digital copy of a real world object.
Today this process can occur in reverse, with the digital model developed first followed by the physical asset.
