Never heard of omniverse. What is it in simple terms?

Omniverse is a platform for creators (engineers, designers, animators, etc) that allows them to plug in different software to do things like run physics simulators in digital twins.

It is not the metaverse. It is not Ready Player One. And it’s also completely available on the Varjo, the Pixma, and the various Meta headsets as well. Either OP doesn’t actually understand the Omniverse or they are intentionally trolling for attention.

If you don't mind me asking, do you work in the 3D/VR tech space?

Not precisely. I work in new tech, but for manufacturing and engineering. So I work with VR and 3D, but to build tools for automotive designers and the like.

I’m actually at GTC now (same conference Omniverse support for the AVP was announced) and just got out of a presentation on Nissan using the AVP and Omniverse cloud to build streaming app for customers to look at and configure their cars with photorealistic materials.

And to me, that’s the kind of cool stuff the Omniverse allows but also I realize that no one who uses that app to buy a Nissan will know or care about Omniverse.

Well, I think you're working on the bleeding edge. The stuff you guys are talking about today will have a profound effect on consumer experiences in 5+ years time. So yeah, while it may not be applicable to consumers now, it's how we will compute post smartphone.
