What are digital twins? Digital twins are digital representations of physical objects. In simple cases, sensors for example, the digital representations may be trivial (e.g., current values for temperature, RPMs, etc.). More interesting cases involve complex, and usually expensive, capital assets such as diesel engines, turbines, and heavy duty mining and construction equipment. In these […]
