NVIDIA and Hexagon deliver suite of solutions for accelerating industrial digitalisation
04 July 2023
Hexagon AB is connecting its reality capture and manufacturing platforms to NVIDIA Omniverse so that enterprises can more easily develop and deploy digital twin applications.
For industrial businesses to reach the next level of digitalisation, they need to create accurate, virtual representations of their physical systems.
NVIDIA is working with Hexagon, the Stockholm-based global leader in digital reality solutions, combining sensor, software and autonomous technologies, to equip enterprises with the tools and solutions they need to build physically accurate, perfectly synchronised, AI-enabled digital twins that can be used to transform their organisations.
Hexagon is building integrations from its HxDR reality-capture and Nexus manufacturing platforms to NVIDIA Omniverse, an open platform for developing and operating industrial metaverse applications via Universal Scene Description ('OpenUSD') plug-ins. The connected platforms, powered by NVIDIA AI technologies, will provide benefits across Hexagon’s major ecosystems, including agriculture, autonomous mobility, buildings, cities, defense, infrastructure, manufacturing and mining.
Together, these solutions deliver seamless, collaborative planning through a unified view, so that industrial customers can better optimise workflows and improve efficiencies at scale. Professionals and developers will be able to use advanced capabilities in reality capture, digital twins, AI, simulation and visualisation to enhance the most complex graphics workflows — from virtual prototyping to digital factories.
Fusing physical and digital worlds into one reality
The $46 trillion manufacturing industry encompasses millions of factories worldwide, designing and developing new products. Digitalisation allows manufacturers to tackle the most complex engineering problems in more efficient, productive ways. It also brings industrial businesses one step closer to automating their workflows and becoming software-defined, which means improving operational efficiency and transforming their services with software.
At the HxGN LIVE Global event, Hexagon and NVIDIA showcased how their integrated offering can help teams to accelerate their digitalisation journeys.
Hexagon is also developing an AI-enabled web application, based on Omniverse, which will allow teams to see real-time comparisons of digital twins and their physical counterparts, so that they can accelerate decision-making while optimising planning and operations. This solution will help enterprises to unlock more collaborative workflows and achieve rapid iteration across their teams, wherever they’re located.
With this announcement, the Omniverse ecosystem will benefit from Hexagon’s digital reality expertise, including geospatial reality capture, sensors, software and autonomous technologies. Enterprises will be able to build, simulate, operate and optimise virtual worlds faster, more accurately and easier than ever before.
