Abstract

Digital twins tend to be on the way of becoming the future of robots, artificial intelligence, and IoT devices, especially in industrial applications. Creating a digital twin solution will help to solve challenges faced in managing the tasks in their operating environment since it enables an integrated solution for the framework that seamlessly connects to their physical counterparts with the latest internet technologies. In this study, we aim to develop a synchronous, situational-aware, bi-directional/multi-directional digital twin platform that allows us to perceive real-time/simultaneous flow of sensory environmental data and remotely operate robots through digital twins for continuous inspection. To achieve this aim, we will investigate the interoperability issues in robot teleoperation with 3D mapping of a remote unknown environment case scenario.
