No Substitute for Experience
Last year, after many years of physical therapy, cortisone shots, and experimental treatments to prop up my failing knees, I decided to go bionic and get full knee replacements.
How Digital Twins Affect the Entire Product Life Cycle
Just like in the Star Trek holodeck, digital twins are virtual replicas of the physical world. They enable industries to predict and optimize processes using live data.
<em>Kintsugi</em> Leadership: A New Frame for Quality, Resilience, and Trust
In today’s competitive manufacturing landscape, resilience is the new quality. And one of the most powerful lessons in resilience doesn’t come from a factory—it comes from an art form.
