NVIDIA Sees Simulation Continuing to Add Value for AI, Robotics Developers Heading Into GTC 2023

Found in Robotics News & Content, with a score of 16.66

March 14, 2023

…Humble release was a key accomplishment in partnership with Open Robotics. We improved the framework to make it easier to build hardware accelerated ROS 2 applications. We launched a new webinar series for ROS developers that has been extremely well received and available for on-demand viewing. We’re extremely proud of the release of the NVIDIA Jetson Orin edge AI platform, the highest-performance, energy-efficient computer for roboticists currently available (per MLPerf benchmarks). It’s the brains of a new generation of autonomous robots that can sense and perceive the world better and faster. Can you give some examples of how developers are…
