A digital twin is a virtual representation of a process, product, or service. The pairing of the virtual and physical worlds allows analysis of data and real-time monitoring of systems to predict maintenance issues, prevent downtime, and develop new and/or improved processes.
Data is gathered and computational models are created to test the digital twin concept. This could include a real-time interface between the digital model and a physical object for sending and receiving feedback and data.

In manufacturing, digital twin technology can be used to test the feasibility of a product before launching. The technology is also used to design different versions of a product and offer greater personalization to customers. Engineers can also use it to monitor the performance of end-products and identify defects.
