Exploration of an executive digital twin application

The workplace is evolving at the frontier, people and machines work side by side. In factories and industries, the trend for the past two-hundred years has been to provide mechanical devices to assist in manual labour. The benefit for people is that workplaces are more equitable and accommodating to people with disabilities. The future will see people and machines work side-by-side on problem-solving tasks of increasing complexity. This project prepares for that future by showing how camera vision and digital twins can augment the senses available to people engaged in intrinsically human enterprise.
