…microservice solves complex routing problems with multiple constraints using GPU-accelerated evolutionary algorithms. All of this happens in real time, while Isaac Mission Control coordinates the entire fleet using map data and route graphs from cuOpt to send and execute AMR commands. AI agents on the move AI agents can assist in large-scale industrial environments by, for example, managing fleets of robots in a factory or identifying streamlined configurations for human-robot collaboration in supply chain distribution centers. To build these complex agents, developers need digital twins that function as AI gyms - physically accurate environments for AI evaluation, simulation and training.…

…only. By optimizing these processes for graphics processing units (GPUs), some tasks can now be performed interactively by the engineer because results are produced in minutes. Benchmarks show the time required to analyze the stiffness of a material is reduced by 98%. This rapid solve time, combined with the introduction of a command line interface, also enables the use of Digimat finite element models within automated cloud-based optimization workflows on high-performance computing platforms. When producing high performance structures such as aerospace components from composites, the progressive failure analysis (PFA) model makes it possible to define safety margins for a structure…
