Blockchain has naturally become the next step in bridging the connection, with the advent of blockchain technology redefining the concept of digital twins. It could be an essential tool to aid the application of digital twins in IoT, transferring the data and value onto the Internet with full transparency. Sectors such as manufacturing and retail are set to benefit from these technologies interlinking, connecting the physical with the digital world. A digital twin built with traditional technologies must need a central intermediary that is dependable in performing analytics and holding data. Perhaps the inability to govern the digital twins and the lack of approval is a reason why digital twins have been slow to gain popularity. Blockchain technology has the potential to become the most relevant and capable way to generate and monitor digital twins due to the security and immutability of technology.
A digital twin of an item, process or system is like a virtual copy of the real thing. Think about having a digital copy of a plant, a car or a city on your computer. This digital twin acts exactly like the real stuff, allowing you to experiment with different situations virtually. You can anticipate potential issues and optimize performance without interacting with the physical version. For example, engineers can use a digital twin of a jet engine to simulate how it would operate under various conditions without needing to use the actual engine. A digital twin works effectively, thanks to the continual feed from its physical peer. It could be used in diverse applications, such as smart cities, healthcare, industry research and space research.
