Adopting technical innovations
New technology developments address many difficulties associated with IT/OT convergence. Low-code applications and natural language programming are now possible for various devices and sensors. This programming eliminates the need for coding knowledge to get them online.
Digital twins, as we noted, can provide numerous benefits by creating digital reproductions of objects. This can be a whole machine or a subset of a machine system. Twins can also be single pieces or assemblies that can be used to model changes to the system or allow considerations, such as stress testing, to mimic failure. Alternatively, they could be brand-new product developments modeled within a comprehensive approach to help determine how the parts are integrated and used more effectively. Inspection can be done using virtual and augmented reality, or it can be used to improve training or allow a trained professional in a remote location to assist an unskilled operator with repairs...
