IP1799B - Digital Twin Ola Takes Over the Virtual Factory: Chat with the App Creators

We are excited to announce the launch of our Virtual Factory 3.0 app. In this panel discussion, hosted by Deloitte’s Chief Futurist Robert Schmid and our creative team, we discuss how the Virtual Factory was envisioned, designed, built and animated; which Digital Thread use cases it demonstrates; and how the app’s users can leverage this tool to better understand and explain key concepts of Digital Thread to their Product Development & Manufacturing organizations.

The Virtual Factory by Deloitte app simulates the three phases of a rubber duck product’s lifecycle—design, manufacturing, and life—interconnected across the Digital Thread. The main use case is the Digital Twin and how it helps reduce product time-to-market and overall cost of service while enriching the customer experience
