Digital Twin: the center-point of any IoT Application

There are many theoretical publications about digital twins as the virtual representation of the real world. Today we want to show how to model and use digital twins in practise as the center-point of any consistent, scalable the secure IoT Application.

In this video you learn how the semantic and hierarchical thing model allows customers to create a digital representation of a physical object such as a specific machine type. Components of the machine description (e.g. groups of sensors) can be reused when modelling additional thing types. In particular, the properties that are associated with a thing type as well as the semantics of time series that need to be captured, can get defined freely.
