Breakthroughs in 3D model visualization, such as real-time ray traced rendering and immersive virtual reality, are making architecture and design workflows faster, better and safer.
At GTC this week, NVIDIA announced the newest advances for the AEC industry with the latest NVIDIA Ampere architecture-based enterprise desktop RTX GPUs, along with an expanded range of mobile laptop GPUs.
AEC professionals will also want to learn more about NVIDIA Omniverse Enterprise, an open platform for 3D collaboration and physically accurate simulation.
New RTX GPUs Bring More Power, Performance for AEC The NVIDIA RTX A5000 and A4000 GPUs are designed to enhance workflows for architectural design visualization.
Based on NVIDIA Ampere architecture, the RTX A5000 and A4000 integrate second generation RT Cores to further boost ray tracing , and third generation Tensor Cores to accelerate AI-powered workflows such as rendering denoising, deep learning super sampling and generative design.
Several architecture firms, including HNTB, have experienced how the RTX A5000 enhances design workflows.
The performance we get from the NVIDIA RTX A5000, even when enabling NVIDIA RTX Global Illumination, is amazing, said Austin Reed, director of creative media studio at HNTB. Having NVIDIA RTX professional GPUs at our designers' desks at HNTB will enable us to fully leverage RTX technology in our everyday workflows.
NVIDIA's new range of mobile laptop GPU models - including the NVIDIA RTX A5000, A4000, A3000 and A2000, and the NVIDIA T1200, T600 and T500 - allows AEC professionals to select the perfect GPU for their workloads and budgets.
With this array of choices, millions of AEC professionals can do their best work from anywhere, even compute-intensive work such as immersive VR for construction rehearsals or point cloud visualization of massive 3D models.
NVIDIA Omniverse Enterprise: A Shared Space for 3D Collaboration Architecture firms can now accelerate graphics and simulation workflows with NVIDIA Omniverse Enterprise, the world's first technology platform that enables global 3D design teams to simultaneously collaborate in a shared virtual space.
The platform enables organizations to unite their assets and design software tools, so AEC professionals can collaborate on a single project file in real time.
Powered by NVIDIA RTX technology, Omniverse delivers high-performance and physically accurate simulation for complex 3D scenes like cityscapes, along with real-time ray and path traced rendering. Architects and designers can instantly share physically accurate models across teams and devices, accelerating design workflows and reducing the number of review cycles.
Artists Create Futuristic Renderings with NVIDIA RTX Overlapping with GTC, the Building Utopia design challenge allowed archviz specialists around the world to discover how NVIDIA RTX real-time rendering is transforming architectural design visualization.
Our thanks to all the participants who showcased their creativity and submitted short animations they generated using Chaos Vantage running on NVIDIA RTX GPUs. NVIDIA, Lenovo, Chaos Group, KitBash3D and CG Architect are thrilled to announce the winners.
Congratulations to the winner, Yi Xiang, who receives a Lenovo ThinkPad P15 with an NVIDIA Quadro RTX 5000 GPU. In second place, Cheng Lei will get an NVIDIA Quadro RTX 8000, and in third place, Dariele Polinar will receive an NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000.
