4.1 Introduction

Virtual reality (VR) plays an important role in the era of digital production control. In addition to managing production and control processes, it also serves for visual monitoring of production, identification of bottlenecks, simulation, and collision avoidance.

In the metrological sense, most often VR, augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR) are today united in the concept of digital twin (DT) which enables both the control of the measurement process and the simulation and verification ...
