How AR, VR, And Digital Twins Optimize The Industrial World

Augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR) and digital twins are on the cusp of enabling businesses to visualise key insights about their operational technologies. The ability to view both physical and virtual environments are an untapped boon for industries like manufacturing, transportation, and energy, where heavy machinery and other physical equipment often lies at the centre of business operations.
It’s becoming increasingly imperative to merge these physical assets into IT applications and infrastructure to improve operations, customer service and produce business-critical insights that help companies gain a competitive advantage. That is where digital twins, AR and VR each have a role to play in helping enterprises achieve full Industry 4.0 transformation and automation.

‘Digital’ In Manufacturing Is No Longer An Option – It’s The New Business As Usual

The top three digital business drivers for manufacturers are operational efficiency, competitive pressure and profitability. These drivers are still the ‘business constant’ that will almost certainly never change.
Although the promotional language used among technology advocates in the manufacturing industry is largely unchanged over the past decade, recent developments in emerging technologies and their associated price points are seriously changing what can realistically be digitally delivered for manufacturers. IoT is in the driving seat.

Giving Human Relevance To Digital Transformation

Digital transformation does not start with technology, but with the people and processes it enables. Envision the enormous possibilities and high impact that digital transformation can have in the production process by enabling you and your workforce. Giving human relevance to digital transformation allows technology to be successfully adopted and fully realize the benefits.

There are plenty of reasons for manufacturing operations to get started in the digital transformation journey. The times to stay in the nostalgia of what it was are over unless there is a decision to perish for not getting on the “bullet train” of progress.
There is no space or time for continued wait and see skepticism or the “we’ve tried this before” mentality. There is no room for not embracing the new, or for no willingness to prototype small and rapidly to experiment and fail. There is a competitive advantage for the early adopters and risk takers.
Make the decision and commitment to lead the digital transformation. It may be the only strategy you have to focus on to make the difference.
Read this article for more hard hitting in-depth insight.....
Industry4.0 is a set of technologies that enable transparency, connectivity, and faster decision making to free up time for employees to focus on core competencies and value-add activities. Digital transformation is the skeletal framework through which Industry 4.0 builds it's success....or failure.

The Importance Of Culture Change In Digital Transformation

More and more businesses are seeking to digitally transform their organizations to meet the ever increasing demands and expectations of the modern, technically sophisticated customer. But few are prepared for the internal disruption this causes throughout the entire enterprise, which is why culture change and change management is so important.

For digital transformation to be successful, businesses need to adopt agile methodologies, processes and working practices. Becoming an agile business requires a cultural change. Similarly, as digital transformation is largely driven by the changing demands and expectations of customers, customer-centric strategies are a must and successfully developing and implementing these new approaches requires a more integrated and fluid organization.

Laying the Foundations of Digital Transformation

Businesses whose digital transformation projects fail are usually guilty of failing to lay solid foundations:


  • Agile


  • Customer-Centric


  • Omni-Channel Experience


  • Laying these foundation stones requires huge culture change within the organization and managing this process is challenging. Unfortunately, if your organization wants to be successful, it is unavoidable.

    Culture Change

    Due to the ever changing and ever evolving nature of the modern world, businesses need to cultivate a culture of perpetual revolution.

    The days of businesses setting a strategy for the next 5 years, then waiting for the business execute that strategy, are long gone. Setting a 5 year strategy is still important, but the need to be able to rapidly pivot that strategy at will is fundamentally important to the long-term strategic success of the enterprise. Most businesses, especially big and established companies, are difficult to turn and this is why aggressive new market entrants are able to sweep in and digitally disrupt industries, markets and supply chains. Established companies are too slow to respond and by the time they have mounted a meaningful response, the new entrant has established a strong position in the market and is almost impossible to remove. Companies need to be able to pivot quickly to respond to new market entrants and changes in the competitive landscape.

    Similarly, as new technologies emerge, customers and other major stakeholder group's demands and expectations change. The innovation roadmap you are following today could be redundant in weeks or months. Agility enables quick pivoting of development roadmaps, rapid transformation of customer-centric strategies and the re-engineering of omni-channel customer experiences.

    All these cases cause enterprise wide disruption and with the frequency of these disruptions rising, a culture of change and constant revolution is a must.
