- 26 August 2024 - In a groundbreaking partnership, Vizzio Technologies
Pte Ltd, Foxconn Industrial Internet (FII), and INGRASYS are
spearheading a transformative era in smart manufacturing. This
collaboration focuses on creating digital twins for World Economic Forum
(WEF) Lighthouse Factories worldwide, leveraging advanced satellite
imaging and artificial intelligence to develop immersive 3D
representations of manufacturing environments.
Digital twins, virtual replicas of physical environments, are
revolutionising industry operations by integrating AI, IoT, and
real-time analytics. This technology enhances precision, adaptability,
and sustainability in manufacturing processes, setting new benchmarks
for Industry 4.0 excellence.
Key Achievements
-
- World's First Live 3D Digital Twin: Vizzio Technologies and Fii have
launched the first live 3D digital twin of FII's global manufacturing
sites, marking a significant milestone in smart manufacturing. This
achievement not only highlights the technological prowess of Vizzio
Technologies but also sets a new standard for digital innovation in the
manufacturing sector. By creating a digital twin of a manufacturing
site, companies can monitor, analyse, and optimise their operations in
real-time, leading to significant improvements in efficiency and
productivity.
-
- Global Collaboration: This partnership spans FIIi's WEF-certified
Lighthouse Factories globally, standardising digital twin experiences
across all manufacturing hubs. This global collaboration underscores the
commitment of Vizzio Technologies, Fii, and INGRASYS to drive
innovation and excellence in the manufacturing industry. By leveraging
the strengths and expertise of each partner, this initiative aims to
create a unified and standardised digital twin platform that can be
deployed across various manufacturing sites worldwide.
-
- Advanced Technology Integration: Utilising Vizzio's satellite
imagery and AI, the collaboration constructs accurate photorealistic 3D
models, providing superior alternatives to traditional methods. This
advanced technology integration allows for the creation of highly
detailed and accurate digital representations of physical environments,
enabling better decision-making and operational efficiency. The use of
satellite imagery and AI ensures that the digital twins are not only
accurate but also scalable and adaptable to various manufacturing
environments.
-
- Cost-Effective and Fast 3D Mapping: Vizzio's rapid 3D mapping
workflow integrates cutting-edge street views and indoor/outdoor 3D
maps, significantly reducing digital twin creation costs compared to
traditional LIDAR methods. This cost-effective approach allows more
companies to adopt digital twin technology, democratising access to
advanced manufacturing solutions. By reducing the costs and time
required to create digital twins, Vizzio Technologies is making it
easier for companies to implement and benefit from this transformative
technology.
-
- Real-Time 3D Virtual Tours: The partnership includes installing
POLYTRON 4K 360 cameras, enabling real-time virtual tours, enhancing
operational efficiency, and advancing sustainability practices. These
real-time 3D virtual tours provide an immersive and interactive
experience, allowing stakeholders to remotely monitor and manage
manufacturing operations. This not only reduces the need for physical
site visits but also enhances transparency and collaboration among
teams.
Significance of the Partnership
Foxconn Industrial Internet (FII), a subsidiary of Foxconn Group—one of
the world's largest electronics manufacturers, renowned for assembling
products for leading companies such as Apple—focuses on driving
innovation in smart manufacturing, industrial internet solutions, cloud
computing, and AI. FII was established to capitalise on Foxconn's vast
manufacturing expertise and spearhead the development of Industry 4.0
technologies.
FII's core businesses include the development of advanced robotics,
automated assembly lines, and IoT systems aimed at optimising production
efficiency and reducing operational costs. The company is also at the
forefront of integrating big data and AI into its manufacturing
processes, providing cutting-edge technological solutions to other
industrial players.
In 2018, FII was listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, marking one of
China's most significant IPOs at the time. This move was part of
Foxconn's broader strategy to diversify its operations beyond
traditional electronics manufacturing, expanding into high-tech and
value-added services.
