New NVIDIA Omniverse Cloud APIs help developers adopt OpenUSD.
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SIGGRAPH—NVIDIA today announced a broad range of frameworks, resources and services for developers and companies to accelerate the adoption of Universal Scene Description, known as OpenUSD.

NVIDIA is advancing the development of OpenUSD — a 3D framework enabling interoperability between software tools and data types for the building of virtual worlds — through NVIDIA Omniverse™ and a new portfolio of technologies and cloud application programming interfaces (APIs) — including ChatUSD and RunUSD — along with a new NVIDIA OpenUSD Developer Program.

These investments in OpenUSD expand on NVIDIA’s co-founding of the Alliance for OpenUSD (AOUSD) — an organization announced last week that will standardize OpenUSD specifications — along with Pixar, Adobe, Apple and Autodesk.

“Just as HTML ignited a major computing revolution of the 2D internet, OpenUSD will spark the era of collaborative 3D and industrial digitalization,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “NVIDIA is putting our full force behind the advancement and adoption of OpenUSD through our development of NVIDIA Omniverse and generative AI.”
