XR Association

Digital Twins

Digital twin technology creates dynamic, real-time digital replicas of physical environments, systems, or objects — transforming how industries design, monitor, and improve complex operations. From manufacturing and infrastructure to healthcare, defense, and emergency management, digital twins powered by immersive technologies (AR, VR, MR) offer unprecedented opportunities for innovation, efficiency, and resilience.

At the XR Association, we are working to advance public understanding and policy frameworks that support the responsible development and use of digital twin technologies. We engage with federal agencies, industry leaders, and policymakers to promote standards, interoperability, cybersecurity, and workforce readiness for these cutting-edge tools.
