The human digital twin (HDT) emerges as a promising human-centric technology in Industry 5.0, but challenges remain in human modeling and simulation. Digital human modeling (DHM) provides solutions for modeling and simulating human physical and cognitive aspects to support ergonomic analysis. However, it has limitations in real-time data usage, personalized services, and timely interaction. The emerging HDT concept offers new possibilities by integrating multi-source data and artificial intelligence for continuous monitoring and assessment. Hence, this paper reviews the evolution from DHM to HDT and proposes a unified HDT framework from a human factors perspective. The framework comprises the physical twin, the virtual twin, and the linkage between these two. The virtual twin integrates human modeling and AI engines to enable model-data-hybrid-enabled simulation. HDT can potentially upgrade traditional ergonomic methods to intelligent services through real-time analysis, timely feedback, and bidirectional interactions. Finally, the future perspectives of HDT for industrial applications as well as technical and social challenges are discussed. In general, this study outlines a human factors perspective on HDT for the first time, which is useful for cross-disciplinary research and human factors innovation to enhance the development of HDT in industry.

Additive manufacturing has been increasingly applied. As one of the most commonly used technologies, fused deposition modeling (FDM) still faces the challenge of instable performance. The appearance of the printed part is an important feature to assess its quality. As FDM processes usually take a long time, it is very important to timely identify the defects to avoid unnecessary waste of time and cost. At current stage, this identification work is usually done by the operators. However, it is difficult to realize continuous monitoring for multiple printers and identify surface defects shortly. With the advanced artificial intelligence techniques, a vision-based adaptive monitoring system is proposed in this article to achieve online monitoring with high efficiency and accuracy. The system design is introduced for common FDM printers that allows one camera to move to different angles and capture the images of the printing part. A heuristic algorithm is then proposed to achieve adaptive shooting position planning according to the part geometries. Furthermore, a convolutional neural network-based model is designed to achieve efficient defect classification with high accuracy. A series of experiments have been conducted to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed system.
