NVIDIA is spotlighting the latest NVIDIA RTX-powered tools and apps at SIGGRAPH, an annual trade show at the intersection of graphics and AI.
These AI technologies provide advanced ray-tracing and rendering techniques, enabling highly realistic graphics and immersive experiences in gaming, virtual reality, animation and cinematic special effects. RTX AI PCs and workstations are helping drive the future of interactive digital media, content creation, productivity and development.
ACE's AI Magic During a SIGGRAPH fireside chat, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang introduced James - an interactive digital human built on NVIDIA NIM microservices - that showcases the potential of AI-driven customer interactions.
Using NVIDIA ACE technology and based on a customer-service workflow, James is a virtual assistant that can connect with people using emotions, humor and contextually accurate responses. Soon, users will be able to interact with James in real time at ai.nvidia.com.
James is a virtual assistant in NVIDIA ACE. NVIDIA also introduced the latest advancements in the NVIDIA Maxine AI platform for telepresence, as well as companies adopting NVIDIA ACE, a suite of technologies for bringing digital humans to life with generative AI. These technologies enable digital human development with AI models for speech and translation, vision, intelligence, realistic animation and behavior, and lifelike appearance.
Maxine features two AI technologies that enhance the digital human experience in telepresence scenarios: Maxine 3D and Audio2Face-2D.
Developers can harness Maxine and ACE technologies to drive more engaging and natural interactions for people using digital interfaces across customer service, gaming and other interactive experiences.
Tapping advanced AI, NVIDIA ACE technologies allow developers to design avatars that can respond to users in real time with lifelike animations, speech and emotions. RTX GPUs provide the necessary computational power and graphical fidelity to render ACE avatars with stunning detail and fluidity.
With ongoing advancements and increasing adoption, ACE is setting new benchmarks for building virtual worlds and sparking innovation across industries. Developers tapping into the power of ACE with RTX GPUs can build more immersive applications and advanced, AI-based, interactive digital media experiences.
RTX Updates Unleash AI-rtistry for Creators NVIDIA GeForce RTX PCs and NVIDIA RTX workstations are getting an upgrade with GPU accelerations that provide users with enhanced AI content-creation experiences.
For video editors, RTX Video HDR is now available through Wondershare Filmora and DaVinci Resolve. With this technology, users can transform any content into high dynamic range video with richer colors and greater detail in light and dark scenes - making it ideal for gaming videos, travel vlogs or event filmmaking. Combining RTX Video HDR with RTX Video Super Resolution further improves visual quality by removing encoding artifacts and enhancing details.
RTX Video HDR requires an RTX GPU connected to an HDR10-compatible monitor or TV. Users with an RTX GPU-powered PC can send files to the Filmora desktop app and continue to edit with local RTX acceleration, doubling the speed of the export process with dual encoders on GeForce RTX 4070 Ti or above GPUs. Popular media player VLC in June added support for RTX Video Super Resolution and RTX Video HDR, adding AI-enhanced video playback.
Read this blog on RTX-powered video editing and the RTX Video FAQ for more information. Learn more about Wondershare Filmora's AI-powered features.
In addition, 3D artists are gaining more AI applications and tools that simplify and enhance workflows, including Replikant, Adobe, Topaz and Getty Images.
Replikant, an AI-assisted 3D animation platform, is integrating NVIDIA Audio2Face, an ACE technology, to enable improved lip sync and facial animation. By taking advantage of NVIDIA-accelerated generative models, users can enjoy real-time visuals enhanced by RTX and NVIDIA DLSS technology. Replikant is now available on Steam.
Adobe Substance 3D Modeler has added Search Asset Library by Shape, an AI-powered feature designed to streamline the replacement and enhancement of complex shapes using existing 3D models. This new capability significantly accelerates prototyping and enhances design workflows.
New AI features in Adobe Substance 3D integrate advanced generative AI capabilities, enhancing its texturing and material-creation tools. Adobe has launched the first integration of its Firefly generative AI capabilities into Substance 3D Sampler and Stager, making 3D workflows more seamless and productive for industrial designers, game developers and visual effects professionals.
For tasks like text-to-texture generation and prompt descriptions, Substance 3D users can generate photorealistic or stylized textures. These textures can then be applied directly to 3D models. The new Text to Texture and Generative Background features significantly accelerate traditionally time-consuming and intricate 3D texturing and staging tasks.
Powered by NVIDIA RTX Tensor Cores, Substance 3D can significantly accelerate computations and allows for more intuitive and creative design processes. This development builds on Adobe's innovation with Firefly-powered Creative Cloud upgrades in Substance 3D workflows.
Topaz AI has added NVIDIA TensorRT acceleration for multi-GPU workflows, enabling parallelization across multiple GPUs for supercharged rendering speeds - up to 2x faster with two GPUs over a single GPU system, and scaling further with additional GPUs.
