While the survey confirmed many of digital twin technology's expected benefits, such as more accurate and accelerated product development, it also revealed this surprising prediction: Two in three respondents (67%) expect digital twin solutions to make the need for physical prototypes obsolete within the next six years.

Additionally, respondents reported an overwhelmingly strong connection between digital twins and the drive for sustainability. 85% of respondents' organizations are currently using or plan to use digital twin technology to reach their overall sustainability goals.

"There's little doubt data gleaned from using digital twins gives organizations a world of new insight, helping teams work faster, create better products, generate less waste, and find their next big breakthrough," said James R. Scapa, founder and chief executive officer, Altair. "But as this study confirms, we are just seeing the tip of the iceberg. The evolution toward a smart, connected everything is changing the world, and as businesses realize the untapped benefits of taking digital twins to the next level, including the convergence of simulation technology, high-performance computing, and AI, the possibilities for revolutionizing industries, business processes, and scientific research are endless."
