Think building your production line in a digital environment to optimize before you build it.

This is where the industry is looking to.

It would be a win if you can see your bottlenecks and common error scenarios before you actually build the thing on the real world.

We've been doing this for a long time already. 50 years ago complex factories were built as scale-models first in order to detect problems before construction starts on the real factory. Today (and for the last couple decades) we use digital models instead.

But VR and "the metaverse" play essentially zero role in all of this. 99% of it happens on ordinary flat 2D computer-monitors.
