PhilNote: Proof of Concept applicable to content production
NVIDIA and several partners have recently announced a successful proof of concept that uses edge computing and 5G-enabled virtual reality (VR) technology to enable two engineering teams about 70 miles apart to collaborate as if they were in the same room.
The project is taking place at Hyperbat, the UK’s largest independent electric vehicle battery manufacturer. The company’s engineers based in Wantage and Coventry are able to work simultaneously on a 1:1-scale digital twin of an EV battery.
According to NVIDIA, the engineers are able to immerse themselves in virtual tasks that mimic real life thanks to renders created using NVIDIA GPUs, RTX Virtual Workstation software and NVIDIA CloudXR technology. The digital transformation results in reduced inefficiencies and faster design processes.
The team at Hyperbat, in partnership with BT, Ericsson, the GRID Factory, Masters of Pie, Qualcomm and NVIDIA, have developed a proof of concept that uses VR to power these collaborative sessions. ...
