500-year-old Watch Reveals Secrets Thanks to Digital Twin

A team of researchers used a digital twin to analyze a 500-year-old watch, uncovering new insights into its mechanics and historical significance.

The digital twin was created using 3D scanning and computer-aided design (CAD) software, allowing researchers to simulate the watch's movements and test hypotheses about its inner workings.

The study's findings have shed new light on the watch's historical context and the craftsmanship that went into its creation.

The use of digital twins in cultural heritage preservation is a growing field, allowing researchers to study and analyze historical artifacts in unprecedented detail.
