Fostering digital competences : a modular system and practical training for digital twins
- Digital twins enable real-time monitoring, analysis, and optimization, thus enhancing efficiency and productivity in future factories. Nevertheless, the effective integration and innovative future utilization requires the broad acceptance and understanding among non-IT-related groups. This paper presents a practical training program that provides detailed guidance on how to create digital twins from real world data. It consists of modules utilizing 3D models in Unity with associated code, MQTT connectivity and network addressability. The integration of real-world data combined with a user interface that displays values in an integrated space enhances the overall usability. This integrative approach based on low-cost hardware and open source software makes the technology accessible to a wide audience and opens up new opportunities for advances in related higher education and employee training.
