It takes big business to make Nvidia's Omniverse tangible

Nvidia is investing mightily in the concept of "digital twins" or large-scale simulations that illuminate real-world processes. This week at the company's GPU Technology Conference (GTC) they demonstrated how several high-profile companies are bringing digital twins into production via their all-encompassing Omniverse hardware …

Both videos seemed depressing...

... also 1 of them stated it could pack warehouses more densely than humans can, but it didn't look like it. I'm sure it can be done but, that video didn't seem like proof of such (or anything non-unhappy).

Use Omniverse to find out a way to make more Graphics cards!

And don't forget automotive

NVIDIA Drive (https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2022/03/23/drive-sim-omniverse-neural-ai-digital-twin/) provides interesting perspectives for the training of AI for autonomous vehicles.

There is a trend to go past the Tesla model of using real world data for the training of AI

a trend NVIDIA is also spearheading:

On the side, consider that Omniverse looks quite interesting for small fish in digital design too, with an ecosystem that could allow an independent designer using Blender to collaborate with a studio that uses 3DSMax; I don't know if this last option comes with strings attached, but the potential is surely there.
