About the session
The IET, along with the High Value Manufacturing Catapult (HVMC) and Immerse UK, hosted the third annual Applied Visualisation Forum at the British Motor Museum in Gaydon on 30 January 2019.
The event brought together engineers, practitioners, researchers and technology providers from across various industry sectors to share expertise and best practice. Attendees were able to discover how a range of companies, from automotive to energy, have been transforming their businesses through advanced visualisation technologies such as virtual reality and augmented reality.
One of the main themes this year, however, was digital twin technology, a relatively new term for a virtual model of a physical product, process, system or service. One of the objectives of the day was to enhance delegates’ understanding of what a digital twin is, as well as how it can be used and applied effectively.
