2、by the Alliance for IoT and Edge Computing Innovation(AIOTI)aims to provide the vision of the convergence of edge IoT,artificial intelligence(AI),digital twins(DT),immersive triplets(IMT),intelligent mesh connectivity,IoT of senses(IoTS),software-defined automation(SDA)and spatial computing technolo

3、gies to create an industrial real-digital-virtual continuum.Such continuum is made of immersive environments,which are computer-generated virtual worlds where users can sense as if they were physically embodied in that generated perception context.The convergence of these technologies into industria

4、l immersive solutions advances the integration and application of edge intelligent immersive technologies combining augmented reality(AR),virtual reality(VR),mixed reality(MR),and extended reality(XR)with concepts like metaverses,omniverse,multiverses,next generation spatial web,Web 4.0 as part of f

5、uture virtual worlds.Such convergence of industrial immersive technologies at the edge can improve efficiency,reduce downtime,enhance safety,and better decision-making in industrial settings.However,to be effectively deployed,it both requires a strong interdisciplinary collaboration and presents cha

6、llenges like robust hardware(HW)design and cost-effective availability,data security and privacy preserving methods,and effective industrial workflow integration.As technology advances,the adoption of such convergence in industry is expected to grow,offering transformative benefits across various se
