How to Integrate Digital Twin and Virtual Reality in Robotics Systems? Design and Implementation for Providing Robotics Maintenance Services in Data Centers
CoRR(2023)
摘要
In the context of Industry 4.0, the physical and digital worlds are closely
connected, and robots are widely used to achieve system automation. Digital
twin solutions have contributed significantly to the growth of Industry 4.0.
Combining various technologies is a trend that aims to improve system
performance. For example, digital twinning can be combined with virtual reality
in automated systems. This paper proposes a new concept to articulate this
combination, which has mainly been implemented in engineering research
projects. However, there are currently no guidelines, plans, or concepts to
articulate this combination. The concept will be implemented in data centers,
which are crucial for enabling virtual tasks in our daily lives. Due to the
COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a surge in demand for services such as
e-commerce and videoconferencing. Regular maintenance is necessary to ensure
uninterrupted and reliable services. Manual maintenance strategies may not be
sufficient to meet the current high demand, and innovative approaches are
needed to address the problem. This paper presents a novel approach to data
center maintenance: real-time monitoring by an autonomous robot. The robot is
integrated with digital twins of assets and a virtual reality interface that
allows human personnel to control it and respond to alarms. This methodology
enables faster, more cost-effective, and higher quality data center
maintenance. It has been validated in a real data centre and can be used for
intelligent monitoring and management through joint data sources. The method
has potential applications in other automated systems.
