Why would someone want a 3D digital twin? This week Technology Now dives into the topic of digital twins, what they are and why they’re used. What are the challenges faced when trying to build and use a SD digital twin, and what are the benefits these twins bring to companies which use them? Sebastian Schwarz, General Manager at NetAllied, tells us more.

This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week, hosts Michael Bird and Aubrey Lovell look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what can be learnt from it.
