Remember when the capabilities of the internet seemed mind-boggling? Digital twins and the metaverse are the next iteration of the internet, according to GridRaster’s cofounder and COO Dijam Panigrahi.

Panigrahi works in the world of digital twins, virtual representations of the real world that serveĀ as an indistinguishable digital counterparts. GridRaster provides back-end functions from the cloud for a shared software infrastructure to run extended reality, augmented reality, virtual reality and mixed reality applications for wireless mobile devices. When physicians from different countries can be in the same surgery room without leaving their respective offices, this represents a new world that’s changing healthcare. To many, that’s mind-boggling.

Hear more in Panigrahi’s conversation with Healthcare Finance’s News Executive Director Susan Morse.

Talking Points:

  • Thousands of users in different spaces can collaborate in these digital environments.
  • The software can customize healthcare offerings to patients.
  • With a digital twin, process failures can be analyzed ahead of production.
  • Spatially, surgeons not physically present can be in the room.
  • It will allow employees to collaborate virtually using their digital twin through chats, emails, video calls and even face-to-face meetings.
  • Engineering teams can perform scenario-based testing to predict failures, identify risks and apply mitigation in simulation labs.
