Nvidia has contributed a number of resources, frameworks, and services aimed at accelerating the adoption of Universal Scene Description (USD), known as OpenUSD, as a standard for 3D content.
OpenUSD is a 3D framework designed to foster interoperability between software tools and data types for creating virtual worlds. It has a chance to become the lingua franca of the 3D content, including the universe of virtual worlds known as the metaverse.
To bolster the development of OpenUSD, Nvidia has introduced a portfolio of cutting-edge technologies and cloud application programming interfaces (APIs), including ChatUSD and RunUSD. These APIs, along with the newly launched Nvidia OpenUSD Developer Program, are poised to drive the widespread adoption of OpenUSD, amplifying its potential impact.
The investments made by Nvidia in OpenUSD build upon its co-founding of the Alliance for OpenUSD (AOUSD), an organization formed in collaboration with industry leaders such as Pixar, Adobe, Apple, and Autodesk. The AOUSD aims to establish standardized OpenUSD specifications, facilitating seamless integration and cooperation across the industry.
