Machines and human bodies are more similar than we think
What does a digital twin of a press shop look like? The spatially accurate model of the shop – which you can open on a tablet, for example – includes everything that's important, from the massive machines to the trash cans. In the model, you can simply click on the press machine to see what parts are being manufactured at the moment. In the future, you may also be able to connect the digital twin to VR glasses and virtually transport yourself into the press shop.
Digital twins are just one of many emerging projects in which expert coordinator Lukáš Altman Kousal is involved. For Škoda Auto's press shop, he looks for technological innovations that will make production more efficient and employees' work easier. And in his spare time? Instead of the press shop, he digitizes his household. Instead of machine data, he collects information about his health. In short, Lukáš's life revolves around innovations. Which ones are currently in vogue at Škoda Auto?
