Testing the electric car with a digital twin setup that emulates high-power DC charging.
Digital twin technology is changing how the automotive industry designs and tests products and solutions for electromobility (e-mobility).
With pressure to develop more energy-efficient batteries, and a ramp-up in charging infrastructure development, digital twins can help bring new products to market faster, without compromising on conformance to standards for performance and safety.
Emulator Versus Simulator
Digital twins have emerged as a hot technology topic, but the concept has its roots in emulation technology dating back to the early 1990s.
Emulators imitate the behaviour of one or more pieces of equipment, whether an integrated circuit or even an entire piece of equipment and have numerous applications.

Roborock combines cutting-edge technologies with a keen awareness of what home-owners want to produce robot vacuums with floor-cleaning features that get the job done with minimum human intervention.
Roborock is the Best Robot Vacuum Brand 2022 in the tech4tea.com Best-in-Class Awards this year.
Having used multiple robot vacuum floor-cleaners since their debut more than a decade ago, tech4tea.com has witnessed the evolution in their design and performance over time.
The flagship S7 MaxV Ultra exemplifies Roborock’s ability to home-owners’ desire to keep their homes clean with minimum fuss and human intervention.
In the early days, a simple robot vacuum could only vacuum the floor with limited effectiveness, and required the user to manually empty the dust compartment and clean the vacuum robot frequently.
Nowadays, with robot vacuums like the S7 MaxV Ultra from Roborock, home-owners can delegate the floor cleaning of their homes completely to their robot vacuums, with minimum fuss and human intervention.
The S7 MaxV Ultra, for example, not only vacuums but also mops the floor.
