An exciting prototype from our colleagues at Next, Digital Twin technology mapping behind walls has very real and tangible benefit to trades. We’re excited to see how founders are exploring the tech.
🛠️ What if tradies could see behind walls without the guesswork of making costly holes and hoping for the best? At Next, we’ve been working on a digital twin prototype that does just that. Built from 3D models of the Reece Plumbing Footscray branch, our prototype allows users to walk through with their mobile device and have a real-time view of hidden services like pipes and fittings behind walls. We think the potential impact on time, cost, and accuracy in diagnosis could be a game changer—particularly for maintenance plumbers. A huge shoutout to Seana Glover from the Next team for connecting with Rudi, one of our legendary customers, to get firsthand feedback on how this tech could transform the way tradies work. Check out the video to see the prototype in action! 🎥👇 #Innovation #DigitalTwin #TradieTech #Next #Reece
