As more teams move from humanoid robot bring-up to task-specific skill development, the need for repeatable development workflows is growing. Building humanoids remains complex, and today’s development pipelines are still highly fragmented. As a result, developers spend significant time configuring robotics infrastructure before they can focus on building robot capabilities.

NVIDIA Omniverse NuRec is a neural reconstruction pipeline for building high-fidelity 3D representations of real-world environments from multisensor data such as cameras and lidar. It is used to reconstruct dynamic scenes captured by autonomous vehicle (AV) and robotics platforms into simulation-ready digital environments that can be rendered, replayed, and analyzed inside NVIDIA Omniverse and…

AI scientists are emerging as a new interface for scientific computing. These agents can read papers, write code, generate hypotheses, call APIs, inspect files, and iterate on results. But science isn’t software engineering. There is no test suite that turns green when a hypothesis is correct; discovery is iterative, uncertain, and grounded in the physical world. You can’t take a general coding…

Transformer architectures are the backbone of many modern large language and generative AI models. As these models grow in size, training runs consume more GPU hours and more engineering iteration time. Accelerating transformers is therefore not just a performance optimization, but directly affects how quickly teams can experiment and how large a model they can afford to train.

Foundation models are reshaping computational biology. Pretrained on massive corpora of protein or genomic sequences, models such as ESM2 (a protein language model) and Evo 2 (a DNA language model) capture statistical regularities of biological sequences. These transfer well to a wide range of downstream tasks, including structure prediction, variant effect, and functional annotation.

Developing autonomous vehicle (AV) policies requires bridging an important gap between training and deployment. Vision-language-action (VLA) models that can reason over more complex driving scenes and produce richer intermediate reasoning are predominantly trained in open-loop, where model outputs are directly compared to ground-truth behaviors without considering their effect on the environment.

Physical AI systems must understand the real world before they can act within it. Robots, autonomous vehicles, and smart spaces need to understand what’s happening in their world, predict what’s likely to happen next, and generate actions for specific environments, embodiments, and tasks. NVIDIA Cosmos 3 is a frontier foundation model for physical AI that combines physical reasoning…

High‑quality 3D medical imaging data is the foundation of modern radiology AI, but access to it is often constrained by data scarcity, privacy restrictions, and the high cost of expert annotation. As a result, training reliable 3D medical imaging models is frequently bottlenecked by small, narrow, and hard‑to‑share datasets, limiting model robustness and generalization. To help teams overcome…

For decades, computational biology has operated under a reductionist compromise. To fit complex biological systems into the limited memory of a single GPU, researchers have had to deconstruct them into isolated fragments—single proteins or small domains. This created a context gap, where larger proteins or complexes could not be folded zero-shot due to GPU hardware memory constraints. Now…

The subsurface industry is at a critical point in its digital evolution. For decades, unlocking reservoir potential has relied on experts performing essential and time-intensive manual workflows. As data complexity grows, the gap between machine speed and human bandwidth has become a primary bottleneck. On-demand simulation workflows are currently hampered by both manual data overhead…

The development of socially acceptable nuclear reactors requires that they are safe, clean, efficient, economical, and sustainable. Meeting these requirements calls for new approaches, driving growing interest in Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and in Generation IV designs. SMRs aim to improve project economics by standardising designs and shifting construction to controlled manufacturing…

For decades, computational chemistry has faced a tug-of-war between accuracy and speed. Ab initio methods like density functional theory (DFT) provide high fidelity but are computationally expensive, limiting researchers to systems of a few hundred atoms. Conversely, classical force fields are fast but often lack the chemical accuracy required for complex bond-breaking or transition-state analysis.
