The digital twin acts as an “actor”, perceiving and optimizing physical entities from design, models and data, while driving iterations of sensors, design software, the Internet of things, and new technologies.

From this, we can also see that the digital twin is strongly associated with many emerging technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR) and so on.

Digital twin transmits real-time data based on the Internet of Things

Today we’ll talk about the relationship between the digital twin and the Internet of Things. In order to realize digital twinning, the real-time data of sensor operation and update must be fed back to the digital system, and then the simulation process in virtual space can be realized. In other words, the various sensing technologies of the Internet of Things (IoT) are necessary to realize digital twinning.

As long as the real object connected to the network, real-time transmission of data, to achieve the corresponding digital twin.

It is a ubiquitous network built on top of the Internet. The important foundation and core of the Internet of Things technology is still the Internet, which is integrated with the Internet through various wired and wireless networks to transmit the information of objects in real time and accurately.

Information collected regularly by sensors on the Internet of Things needs to be transmitted over the network. In the process of transmission, in order to ensure the correctness and timeliness of data, it must adapt to various heterogeneous networks and protocols. Therefore, the data on the platform is unified to facilitate data transmission and secure application. Nobelthingjs is an online visualization development platform (www.thingjs.com/guide/?m=sa…). , accumulated modeling data from 3D scene construction, then developed scene interactive scripts and connected to data source interfaces, and constantly collected real-time data to make the project scene “live”. The highlight of the platform is that during the development of this project, the data itself is synchronized. As long as you use a platform account, you can focus on the development of a project from beginning to end!

The digital twin uses the Internet of Things to predict the future

With the help of the Internet of Things and big data technology, digital twins can achieve the goal of measuring indicators and even accurately predicting the future.

(1) Index measurement

By collecting direct data from a limited number of physical sensor indicators and using a large sample base, some indicators that cannot be measured directly can be inferred through machine learning. For example, a series of historical indicator data can be used to build different fault characteristic models through machine learning to indirectly predict health indicators of physical entity operation.

Take An example from Nobelthingjs, which uses CampusBuilder to build a 3D scene model connected to sensor data via Ajax or Json data to simulate the operation of an intelligent park. In addition, interactive scripts can be added to any iot device, and even offline environments can be simulated using existing data.

(2) Accurate prediction

The existing product life cycle management is rarely able to achieve accurate prediction, so it is often unable to predict the problems hidden beneath the surface. Digital twin can be combined with Internet of Things data collection, big data processing and artificial intelligence modeling and analysis, to achieve the assessment of the current state, diagnosis of past problems, and give the results of analysis, simulation of various possibilities, and achieve the prediction of future trends, so as to achieve more comprehensive decision support.

A vivid example of the application of digital twinning is the use of 3D modeling to create digital models of physical objects and mirror the latest copies of locations, features, properties, interactions, etc., of the physical world.

NASA first proposed the digital twin model as a response to the need to identify, analyze, answer and remove obstacles to future emergencies. ** Just think about it, it’s not possible to anticipate all of the situations we encounter in space from the Earth environment, and if an accident occurs in space, the environment to solve the problem will be much more severe than on Earth. ** As a result, NASA’s Apollo program “built at least two identical spacecraft to reflect the conditions of the spacecraft during its mission,” that is, simulated emergency situations for a more comprehensive solution.

The underlying technology and the underlying Internet of Things coexist

It can be said that digital twinning will have a very fundamental place in the technological matrix of the future. Digital twinning also plays a key role in the value loop of new technologies, and iot technology has always been the underlying companion relationship, complementing each other. Among them, business applications can easily interact with the Internet of Things system to jointly create an intelligent system.
