“…Then, the operation status of production line is visualized by retrieving the existing data [33]. One used-case example for a digital twin in battery manufacturing is SIMUBAT 4.0, which is the digital platform of the pilot manufacturing line of LIBs in the laboratory of Prof. Franco from CNRS [34]. Another example is the Tecnomatix Plant Simulation (PLM Solutions) using the digital twin of the standard battery manufacturing processes [35].…”

Developments in different battery chemistries and cell formats play a vital role in the final performance of the batteries found in the market. However, battery manufacturing process steps and their product quality are also important parameters affecting the final products’ operational lifetime and durability. In this review paper, we have provided an in-depth understanding of lithium-ion battery manufacturing in a chemistry-neutral approach starting with a brief overview of existing Li-ion battery manufacturing processes and developing a critical opinion of future prospectives, including key aspects such as digitalization, upcoming manufacturing technologies and their scale-up potential. In this sense, the review paper will promote an understanding of the process parameters and product quality.

The manufacturing process of batteries can be complex and time‐consuming. We introduce a new version of the digital twin of our lithium‐ion battery pilot line, Simubat 4.0 Gen‐2, based on a new combination of Virtual Reality and Mixed Reality. This digital twin is designed to deliver training on the lithium‐ion battery manufacturing process and electrode properties. This tool aims to make users active learners, helping them visualize and understand complex concepts and meets a strong need for skilled labor linked to the blooming of battery gigafactory, in particular in our region. We report here a detailed study of the educational contribution of Simubat 4.0 Gen‐2. This study was performed during two filmed training sessions: the first one with chemistry MSc. students, and the second one with AESC Gigafactory trainees. We used questionnaires to measure the usability and usefulness and at the same time, we studied the usage by analyzing errors and qualitatively assessing communications among the participants. Our study revealed that users had more knowledge after using our digital twin; our digital twin was evaluated as being efficient by the users and it has been proven to be suitable for training in battery manufacturing.

“…Here, we introduce a system for sharing information about virtual space. The metaverse application has been explored in education 36 and gaming, 37 where it has been shown to enhance communication among participants by sharing information about the virtual space. However, these studies use immersive VR, wherein all participants must wear HMDs to provide a highly immersive experience.…”

Since virtual reality technology can easily realize a particular environment, it has been applied to various training. This technology is also expected in education such as those dealing with three‐dimensional figures because they can represent phenomena in three dimensions. One of the standard virtual reality technologies is wearing a head‐mounted display to experience a virtual reality project. However, the virtual reality experience is limited to the person wearing the head‐mounted display (in most cases) when considering the use of head‐mounted display‐based virtual reality in education, making its usage unsuitable for mass education. Therefore, in this study, we develop a second‐screen system that can share virtual reality information using an Android device. Healthy first‐ and second‐year high school students between the ages of 15 and 17 were asked to use the virtual reality educational materials that implemented the developed system, and a questionnaire survey was conducted. There were no negative comments in the survey on whether proposing second‐screen system was necessary, demonstrating the usefulness of the proposed system. Therefore, the second‐screen system may adapt VR technology to mass education. In addition, we developed a package to integrate our second‐screen system into the pre‐existing virtual reality projects. This package simplifies the procedure for implementing a second‐screen system, thus helping to reuse the virtual reality projects that have been developed so far.
