INNOVATION – The Twin One project offers the Conclusion of Project Twin One. Project Twin One concluded in 2022.
PRODUCT possibility of creating a digital twin
DIGITALISATION which may be applied in various
commercial and communications
environments without the need to
produce a physical sample. The
application manages a library of
fabrics to which it applies designs
from the digital archive. In this way
a “digital twin” may be exported as
- a “simulation” of a Ratti product on
supports used for internal purposes
(e-commerce websites, marketing,
testing) in both a 2D and a 3D
modality. The system will provide
a map of physical appearance as
well as the technical data needed
to “input” the accompanying
fabric/design, so that the fabrics
are also available to applications in
the metaverse.
