Design of Utilization Scenarios of Cyberspace Expansion and Physical AI Based on Human-Centered Digital Twin (HcDT)

Abstract

Recently, efforts have been made to enhance the convenience of human life in real-space through the implementation of technologies such as digital humans and digital humanities in cyberspace, using various technologies from ICT mega trends (IoT, Big Data, Cloud, AI, etc.). This study aims to apply digital twin technology to humans and utilize 6G technology to replicate and extend the real world into virtual space. Specifically, this research hypothesizes a connection between reality and cyberspace through the digital integration of Human-Centered Digital Twins (HcDT) and explores concepts through thought experiments and Proofs of Concept (PoC) to expand seamless services using Agentic AI. Furthermore, it considers scenarios for developing a human-centered labor market by utilizing HcDT and Physical AI. Additionally, it is expected that long-term research and infrastructure development will be required to address technical and ethical challenges of this study and to achieve practical commercialization.
