 eak\n---------------------\nAccelerating Embodied AI With Simulation\n\nSi
 mulation is rapidly redefining how embodied AI systems learn, adapt, and d
 eploy in the real world. In this talk, we’ll share best practices from Lig
 htwheel’s work supporting leading research and industry teams with SimRead
 y assets, scalable synthetic data pipelines, and simulation-firs...\n\n---
 ------------------\nAutomating 3D Content at Scale With Digital Twins and 
 OpenUSD\n\nThis must-see session explores how digital creation and automat
 ion can deliver precision marketing at scale. By leveraging NVIDIA’s OpenU
 SD, Omniverse, and enterprise-grade AI, GRIP presents a robust pipeline th
 at integrates Digital Twins, Responsible Enterprise AI, and rule-based con
 trollers....\n\n---------------------\nBreak\n---------------------\nBeyon
 d Rendering: Why Graphics Are Needed For Physical AI\n\nAs machines begin 
 to operate autonomously in the physical world — from robotics to autonomou
 s vehicles to industrial systems — they need not only perception but under
 standing. NVIDIA Cosmos WFMs enable developers to build world models that 
 can predict future states, transfer knowledge ac...\n\n-------------------
 --\nBeyond Hollywood: Expanding 3D Skills into New Frontiers in AI & Digit
 al Twins\n\nUnlock new career paths beyond media and entertainment. Join o
 ur panel to discover opportunities in fields like digital twins, AI, and r
 obotics. Hear from industry leaders and learn how to transition your 3D sk
 ills to these high-demand industries.\n\n---------------------\n3D Gaussia
 n Splatting for Realistic Physical AI Simulations\n\n3D Gaussian splatting
  has rapidly emerged as a transformative technique for high-fidelity scene
  reconstruction and real-time rendering. It is also unlocking new capabili
 ties for physical AI development, from robotics, to autonomous vehicles, a
 nd more. This session explores recent advances in 3D Gaus...\n\n----------
 -----------\nBreak\n---------------------\nAdvancing Humanoid Robots With 
 Simulation-First Approach\n\nDiscover how simulation-first development is 
 advancing humanoid robotics. AEON, Hexagon’s advanced humanoid robot, was 
 engineered entirely in virtual environments using NVIDIA Omniverse, Isaac 
 platform technologies, and OpenUSD. This approach enabled rapid skill acqu
 isition and robust validati...\n\n---------------------\nBreak\n----------
 -----------\nHow Disney Droids Come to Life With Physics Simulation\n\nExp
 erience the next evolution in 3D simulation with Newton, an open-source, G
 PU-accelerated physics engine developed by NVIDIA in collaboration with Di
 sney Research and DeepMind. With seamless OpenUSD integration and NVIDIA W
 arp technology, Newton enables real-time simulation of complex interaction
 s...\n\n---------------------\nIntroduction to OpenUSD for Physical AI\n\n
 See how NVIDIA and our partners are advancing OpenUSD as the data ecosyste
 m for industrial digital twins and the next era of AI, including physical 
 AI for robotics, industrial digitalization, and autonomous vehicles. We’ll
  cover workflows for virtual facility layout and operation, sensor simul..
