Mercedes-Benz thinks Nvidia's Omniverse can help with manufacturing
Mercedes-Benz thinks it can create accurate digital twin simulations using Nvidia's Omniverse software to streamline automotive manufacturing operations.
The German automaker's plan to use Omniverse to"design and plan manufacturing and assembly facilities" was disclosed this week at CES,"By tapping into Nvidia AI and metaverse technologies, the automaker can create feedback loops to reduce waste, decrease energy consumption and continuously enhance quality,"Omniverse is what Nvidia calls an"open 3D development platform" that can be used for creating digital twin simulations, and it's part of the GPU...
This marks the latest investment made by Mercedes-Benz in Nvidia's expanding portfolio of hardware products and software services. The automakerthat it plans to use Nvidia's Drive Orin system-on-chip to power automated driving functions in cars entering the market in 2024, and the company is also using Nvidia's Drive Sim software in Omniverse to simulate such capabilities.
With the latest move, Mercedes-Benz is expanding its use of Omniverse and hoping the platform can help it react faster to changes in production by simulating them in software first. These changes can range from having to switch out components due to supply issues or rolling out a new car model. The ability to simulate these changes in Omniverse, according to Nvidia, will prevent the automaker from having to interrupt operations.
