To accelerate innovation, get new products more efficiently to market, and reduce costs without sacrificing quality and function, manufacturers need to adopt the Industrial Metaverse. That means using capabilities such as AI, mixed reality, and digital twins to strip costs out of product development and refinement. When you can predict the performance of products even before they are prototyped, you take an enormous step forward in time-to-market while potentially reducing costs by orders of magnitude.
In the Industrial Metaverse, product development is streamlined through cloud-based computer-aided design (CAD) and product lifecycle applications. By creating a digital loop of your operations, production cycles can become faster and less cost intensive. The use cases span the entire manufacturing ecosystem:
From AI to cloud to mixed reality, at Microsoft, we’re focused on the Industrial Metaverse and we’re not alone.
