USD/Hydra void* on @nvidiaomniverse. The medium is the #message

[Aaron Luk @asluk]

“We can finally stop solving the same problems in isolation... why should we stop with filmmaking? We can all solve the same problems together for the real world.”

Great to chat on @software_daily with @seanfalconer about accelerating #OpenUSD data interop in @nvidiaomniverse !

[Software Engineering Daily @software_daily]

Aaron Luk @asluk is the Director of Product Management for @nvidiaomniverse. He joins the show with @seanfalconer to talk about the origins of OpenUSD, how it works, industry impacts, and more.

[Aaron Luk @asluk]

The future of #climatescience is looking bright @nvidia @CesiumJS #icon #berlin #hpc

https://t.co/oCdKeEmoAR

& we’re putting it all together with #OpenUSD - everyone can contribute data, insights, analytics, simulations, & more. Collaborative solutions are the way forward

[Aaron Luk @asluk]

@pschork That means a lot-- hope you're well!

[Aaron Luk @asluk]

Data pipelines are the lifeblood connecting the beating hearts of the data science needed to simulate #3D virtual worlds. Start here on your #OpenUSD developer journey and join the community that is collaboratively modeling and implementing the data pipelines of the future.

[NVIDIA Omniverse @nvidiaomniverse]

Universal Scene Description (#OpenUSD) is revolutionizing data modeling and interchange across industries.

Check out the 4 USD superpowers you can leverage to unlock new possibilities in #3D workflows.

My new talk on first principles of #openUSD for virtual worlds goes live at #GTC23 on Mon Mar 20 at 12PM Pacific! See how the rapidly evolving foundation of the #3D internet can be made interoperable everywhere.

[NVIDIA Omniverse @nvidiaomniverse]

#openUSD is more than just a file format.

At #GTC23, learn how this open, powerful, easily extensible world composition framework has APIs for creating, editing, querying, rendering, simulating and collaboration within virtual worlds.

[Aaron Luk @asluk]

It’s been a longtime dream for me to publish pieces like this, that consider the nuances of technological advances and present them on a human scale. Grateful to be a part of @nvidiaomniverse in advancing and democratizing #OpenUSD

[NVIDIA Omniverse @nvidiaomniverse]

Check out this article from @asluk - one of the founding members of #openUSD - to learn what you need to know about USD as the HTML of #3D worlds & as the key to unlocking the #metaverse. 🗝

It was a privilege for me to moderate this panel of thought leaders across industries adopting @openusd into their software stacks with an eye towards the future of virtual worlds. Tune in next week at #GTC2022 to learn more!

[NVIDIA Omniverse @nvidiaomniverse]

Companies such as @Adobe, @Pixar, @Lowes, @Unity, @VolvoCars, and @Autodesk are using #openUSD to build the foundations of the #metaverse.

📅 Add this #GTC22 session to your calendar to learn why.

[Aaron Luk @asluk]

I’m giving an updated version of my @siggraph talk on @openusd in @nvidiaomniverse at #GTC22 — can’t wait to share the progress our amazing colleagues and partners have produced!

[NVIDIA Omniverse @nvidiaomniverse]

#openUSD is more than a just a file format. 📁

Learn all about its APIs for creating, editing, querying, rendering, simulating, and collaboration within virtual worlds at #GTC22.

[Aaron Luk @asluk]

In this in-person session at #SIGGRAPH2022, I'll be walking through the many ways in which #openUSD is the foundation with which @nvidiaomniverse and our partners are constructing, populating, and simulating digital twins. Hope to see you in Vancouver!

[NVIDIA Omniverse @nvidiaomniverse]

We’re “all in” for #openUSD.

Hear NVIDIA engineer Aaron Luk at #SIGGRAPH2022 explain how this open, powerful, and easily extensible framework will enable the industrial metaverse and the next wave of #AI.

[Aaron Luk @asluk]

@GailSimone When I was a little kid checking out books on the making of Star Wars from the local library, I read this very literally and imagined that Luke transitioned from girl to boy over the diegetic course of the original story

[Aaron Luk @asluk]

And the underlying scene interchange and imaging pipelines are at the heart of it all. If you have a passion for delivering scalable data engineering solutions, and deploying them safely over a multi-repository platform, this is the role for you.

[Aaron Luk @asluk]

I'm hiring! NVIDIA Omniverse is empowering folks all over the globe to assemble, populate, and simulate virtual worlds. We're aiming to realize Digital Twins at a planetary scale to concretely characterize the effects of climate change decades from now.

@omershapira The number of IRC channels in which I got pinged is probably an order of magnitude smaller than the number of Slack channels I’m on. I guess the ask is for colleagues to treat Slack as something a little more structured than “fire and forget” ;)

[Aaron Luk @asluk]

Responding in new messages instead of Slack threads is the “mask under nose” of workplace communication
