Powering the Industrial Metaverse

3dverse is at the forefront of the industrial metaverse - an emerging concept that represents the next frontier in digital transformation. It is a virtual representation of the physical world, where real-time data from sensors, machines, and other sources is used to create a realistic, dynamic, interactive, and immersive environment.

3dverse and The Industrial Metaverse

Digital twins are at the heart of the industrial metaverse. They are virtual replicas of physical assets, processes, or systems that can be used to simulate, analyze, and optimize real-world performance.

Digital twins can be used for a wide range of applications, including:

  • Simulation: Digital twins can be used to simulate the behavior of complex systems, such as manufacturing lines or supply chains, to identify bottlenecks and optimize performance.

  • Training: Create collaborative & immersive training simulations that allow employees to learn new skills and procedures in a safe and realistic environment.

  • Operations Optimization: Monitor the performance of physical assets in real-time, identify potential problems before they occur, and optimize maintenance schedules.

  • Validation: Simulate the behavior of the production system under various conditions. Identify potential bottlenecks, optimizate workflows, and validate system's performance before physical implementation.

3dverse provides a comprehensive platform for creating and managing digital twins. Its granular micro-services architecture enables scalability and flexibility, while its real-time collaboration features empower teams to work together seamlessly. This makes 3dverse the ideal solution for enterprises that want to unlock the full potential of digital twins.

Festo Metaverse Experience 

This innovative project seeks to bridge the gap between industrial training and the burgeoning #metaverse by integrating several key concepts.

  • Distance learning thanks to multi-user mode and the virtual classroom: interactivity and teaching in real-time, but online.

  • Testing programs (robots and automated systems) before implementing them on real machines.

  • Creation of a customized digital twin that works in the same way as the real educational model: the possibility of simulating machine breakdowns and errors in order to learn how to correct them.

The Alten Story

ALTEN and 3dverse partner to drive the Industry 4.0 revolution with real-time 3D rendering in the cloud.

By replacing traditional static designs with dynamic and interactive simulations, this technology enables industry professionals to work with 3D models connected in real time to the physical factory. The 3dverse platform, operated in the cloud, natively integrates instant and collaborative visualisation into industrial processes and stands out for its performance, interoperability and persistence. The ambition of ALTEN and 3dverse is to facilitate collaboration between humans and machines through seamless real-time connectivity between the real and virtual worlds.

We aim to demonstrate that a digital twin architecture not only optimizes performance management but also enables immersive training and research within a virtual factory. This includes ergonomic simulations, failure analysis, and enhanced physical workflows.
