the CES 2023 It starts soon, and companies are already gradually announcing the news they will present during the biggest technology fair of the year. the nvidia Among them, I showed you the news omniverse and new applications of its automotive technologies. paying off:
NVIDIA Omniverse ACE
The opening of the advertising wave of nvidiathe company introduced the next test phase of Omniverse Avatar Cloud Engine (ACE), which is a solution that is currently in early use. In its portfolio, it has many small services aimed at making it easier to create virtual assistants or even digital avatars for the virtual environment.
to me nvidiaHey omniverse ace Developing avatars makes block programming of the AI easier for assistants, as they act as general indicators of what they should do—both in terms of moving models and how to assist the user in specific situations. The solution is still compatible with building these skins in any cloud environment, and has functionality that makes avatars capable of artistic presentations, for example – something that attracts a large audience like celebrities. VTubersa cultural phenomenon in Japan since 2020.
In addition, the omniverse ace It also features integration with NVIDIA AI technologies, with pre-made templates and various tools that allow simplifying and faster creation of virtual dolls for businesses that need to launch quickly and effectively.
The program was originally unveiled in September, with a select group of users getting access to initial feedback about the tool — but now, as of CES 2023a nvidia It is looking for partners who will also generate feedback on potential microservices, tools and improvements to the product and also test the limits of the platform.

What’s new in this interface starts with a new update for mixer, one of the most popular 3D modeling software. This version of the software will be provided by Omniverse Launcher from NVIDIA, and will offer users the ability to create 3D arts through artificial intelligence or import them from existing models.
In order for the 3D model animation to be more perfect, a new optimization has also been made in Blender, directly accessible through Omniverse Audio2Facewhich creates a series of facial animations from an audio file that matches what is emitted from the audio used as a base.
