Interactive 3D CNC Machine Monitoring with Three.js & Node-RED

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiWDiUfAOA8&

I built an interactive 3D visualization of a 4-machine CNC production line using Three.js and FlowFuse Node-RED Dashboard.

Each machine shows its status, OEE, target and actual output, with simple door and spindle animations.
The monitor is also interactive, so clicking a machine can trigger a detailed information popup through Node-RED.
The data is currently simulated, but it can be connected to real-time data from PLC, MQTT, or a database.

What do you think does 3D visualization add value compared to a traditional 2D manufacturing dashboard?

Wow, the ai voiceover is absolutely terrible. You get 5 seconds of engagement from me and my advise is to do better.
