The increasing adoption of IoT devices is expected to drive the growth of the digital twin technology market in the coming years. IoT (Internet of Things) devices are specialized hardware components - such as sensors, actuators, and appliances - that communicate wirelessly with a network to gather, exchange, and process data. The demand for IoT devices is rising due to improved connectivity, ongoing digital transformation, greater convenience and efficiency, and enhanced safety and security. IoT devices collect real-time data on various parameters such as temperature, pressure, and usage patterns, which digital twins use to build accurate virtual models. With continuous data input, digital twins enable real-time monitoring, helping businesses optimize operations and identify potential issues in advance. For example, in April 2025, Ericsson, a Sweden-based telecommunications company, reported that global IoT connections reached 18.8 billion in 2024 and are projected to grow to 43 billion by 2030. Therefore, the increasing adoption of IoT devices is contributing to the expansion of the digital twin technology market.

Key players in the digital twin technology market are concentrating on the development of next-generation technological solutions, such as AI-enabled digital twin platforms, to digitize and analyze critical infrastructure assets. AI-enabled digital twin platforms integrate artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities into the creation and management of digital twins, enhancing their functionalities. For instance, Looq AI, a US-based software company, introduced its AI-enabled digital twin technology, the Looq platform, in March 2024. This platform serves as a comprehensive solution for surveyors, engineers, contractors, and asset owners to digitally map infrastructure assets with survey-grade precision in minutes. The Looq platform, driven by a handheld 'Q' camera, combines high-resolution cameras, survey-grade GPS, and an AI processor to provide extensive coverage and quick data gathering capabilities. This platform offers an end-to-end workflow for project teams to engage with digital twins and AI-derived data for engineering, surveying, analysis, and coordination purposes.
