Industrial Metaverse Potential in the Global NDT Industry

The study explores the potential opportunities of the industrial metaverse in the global non-destructive testing (NDT) industry. The NDT industry, which is known for its conservative approach to technology adoption, is increasingly adopting individual technologies such as digital twins, artificial intelligence, AR/VR, and robotics across different applications. These technology enablers will pave the way for mainstream industrial metaverse adoption. These technologies enable NDT industry stakeholders to offer remote inspections, predictive maintenance, quality assurance, asset life cycle management, and workforce training. The study outlines factors driving and restraining the adoption of industrial metaverse in the NDT industry and their impact throughout the forecast period. The industrial metaverse will influence the testing services market across different manufacturing and process industries, and potential outcomes include improved product quality, reduced downtime, and upskilled employees through training (which will also help in the larger context of sustainability). The geographical scope covers the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World (RoW). Author: Ram Ravi
