Virtual replicas of physical systems — how digital twins are transforming design, monitoring, and optimization across industries.
Synopsys has launched the first open Electronics Digital Twin platform, claiming OEMs can validate up to 90% of software before physical hardware exists. Automotive is the first target.
Samsung Electronics has laid out an ambitious plan to convert all manufacturing operations to AI-driven factories by 2030, deploying digital twins, AI agents, and end-to-end automation across its global footprint.
By synthesizing rare failure scenarios, generative AI is solving predictive maintenance's biggest data problem — and pushing digital twins from descriptive to prescriptive.
Microsoft outlines its AI-powered supply chain playbook, joining a crowded field of vendors betting on agentic AI for logistics — but operator readiness remains the bottleneck.
Factory-scale digital replicas are cutting cycle times, preventing costly mistakes, and reshaping how plants plan production changes.
