The world is becoming increasingly digital. People have become used to learning and interacting with the world around them through technology, accelerated even further by the Covid-19 pandemic. This is especially relevant to the generation currently entering education systems and the workforce. Considering digital aids and methods of learning are important for future learning. The increasing online learning needs open the case for integrating digital learning aspects such as serious gaming within education and training systems. Learning factories fall amongst the education and training systems that can benefit from integration with digital learning extensions. Digital capabilities such as digital twins and models further enable the exploration of integrating digital serious games as an extension of learning factories. Since learning factories are meant for a range of different learning, training, and research purposes, such serious games need to be adaptable across stakeholder perspectives to maximize the value gained from the time and cost invested into such design and development. Research into the development of adaptive serious games for multiple stakeholder perspectives must first determine whether such development can be developed that reaches the objectives set for different included stakeholder perspectives. The purpose of this research is to investigate this at the hand of the practical development of a digital adaptive serious game for stakeholder perspectives.
Product engineering and subsequent phases of product lifecycles are predominantly managed in isolation. Companies therefore do not fully exploit potentials through using data from smart factories and product usage. The novel intelligent and integrated Product Lifecycle Management (i²PLM) describes an approach that uses these data for product engineering. This paper describes the i²PLM, shows the cause-and-effect relationships in this context and presents in detail the validation of the approach. The i²PLM is applied and validated on a smart product in an industrial research environment. Here, the subsequent generation of a smart lunchbox is developed based on production and sensor data. The results of the validation give indications for further improvements of the i²PLM. This paper describes how to integrate the i²PLM into a learning factory.
