During NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang’s keynote speech on June 2, he shared insights on how the AI era is driving the development of a new global industrial revolution.
According to a report from TechNews, he covered various technologies and application areas, including advancements in accelerated computing, microservices, industrial digitalization, and consumer devices, which are expected to become key focus areas in the evolving AI market.
1. Collaboration between the computer industry and NVIDIA to build AI factories and data centers: NVIDIA and leading computer manufacturers worldwide announced today the launch of a series of systems based on the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture. These systems feature Grace CPUs, NVIDIA networking technologies, and infrastructures to assist enterprises in establishing AI factories and data centers.
2. Foxconn utilizes NVIDIA artificial intelligence and Omniverse technology to train robots and streamline assembly operations: Foxconn operates over 170 plants worldwide, with its latest being a virtual plant driving the latest developments in industrial automation technology.
The latest of Foxconn’s plant is a digital twin model of a new factory in Guadalajara, Mexico, a hub for the electronics industry. Engineers at Foxconn define processes and train robots in this virtual environment to enable physical factories to efficiently produce the next generation of accelerated computing engines, the NVIDIA Blackwell HGX system.
3. NVIDIA significantly strengthens Ethernet networks for generative artificial intelligence: NVIDIA announced widespread adoption of the NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet platform and will accelerate the release of new products. CoreWeave, GMO Internet Group, Lambda, Scaleway, STPX Global, and Yotta are the first batch of AI cloud service providers to adopt NVIDIA Spectrum-X, bringing ultimate network performance to their AI infrastructure.
Additionally, NVIDIA’s partners have also released products utilizing the Spectrum platform, including ASRock Rack, ASUS, GIGABYTE Technology, Ingrasys Inc., Inventec, Quanta Cloud Technology, Wistron and Wiwynn. Moreover, Dell Technologies, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Lenovo, and Super Micro Computer have collaborated with NVIDIA to incorporate the Spectrum platform into their respective products.
NVIDIA NIM has revolutionized deployment model: NVIDIA has announced that its inference microservice, NVIDIA NIM, optimized in container form, is now available for download by 28 million developers worldwide.
This allows deployment to cloud, data centers, or workstations, enabling developers to effortlessly build generative artificial intelligence applications for assisting partners, such as copilots and chatbots, within minutes, a process that previously took several weeks.
1. Electronics manufacturers adopt NVIDIA AI and Omniverse to drive robotic factories and accelerate industrial digitization: NVIDIA announced that major Taiwanese electronics manufacturers, including Delta Electronics, Foxconn, Pegatron Corporation, and Wistron Corporation, are using NVIDIA’s technology to transform their factories into more autonomous production facilities through new reference workflows.
This workflow combines NVIDIA Metropolis visual artificial intelligence (AI) technology, NVIDIA Omniverse’ physically accurate rendering and simulation technology, and NVIDIA Isaac’s AI robot development and deployment technology.
2. Industry leaders adopt NVIDIA’s robotic technology to develop tens of millions of AI-supported autonomous machines, including BYD Electronics, Siemens, Teradyne Robotics, and Alphabet’s Intrinsic, among more than ten global leading companies in the robotics industry.
These companies integrate NVIDIA Isaac acceleration libraries, physically principled simulation content, and AI models into their software frameworks and robot models to enhance efficiency in factories, warehouses, and distribution centers. This enables human colleagues to work in safer environments and serves as intelligent assistants in executing repetitive or ultra-precise tasks.
3. NVIDIA introduces NVIDIA IGX with Holoscan support, enabling enterprise software to run medical, industrial, and scientific artificial intelligence applications in real-time at the edge: To meet the growing demand for real-time artificial intelligence computing technology at the industrial edge, NVIDIA announces the comprehensive launch of NVIDIA AI Enterprise-IGX software with Holoscan on the NVIDIA IGX platform.
1. NVIDIA utilizes GeForce RTX AI PC to deliver the real AI assistant experience: NVIDIA announces the launch of the new NVIDIA RTX technology, designed to support AI assistants and digital human platforms running on new GeForce RTX AI laptops.
2. NVIDIA introduces Digital Human Microservices to lay the foundation for future generative AI digital avatars: NVIDIA announces the comprehensive rollout of NVIDIA ACE generative artificial intelligence microservices to accelerate the development of the next wave of digital humans and numerous breakthroughs in generative AI soon to be introduced on the platform.
Companies in customer service, gaming, and healthcare sectors are among the first to adopt ACE technology, making it easier to create, personalize, and interact with realistic digital humans. These microservices have broad applications in customer service, telehealth, gaming, and entertainment.
