November Studio Driver Releases at GTC With Support for New NVIDIA Omniverse Updates

NVIDIA GTC is live and bustling, bringing together the world's most brilliant and creative minds who shape our world with the power of AI, computer graphics and more.

At the show, we announced new features for NVIDIA Omniverse, our real-time digital-twin simulation and collaboration platform for 3D workflows. These include Omniverse VR, Remote and Showroom, along with new Omniverse Connectors, primed to benefit 3D artists.

Additionally, Omniverse Enterprise has entered general availability, making the Omniverse ecosystem accessible to more designers, engineers and creative professionals.

Logitech recently integrated NVIDIA Broadcast's popular noise removal feature into its lines of premium headsets and microphones.

These new features are all backed by the new November NVIDIA Studio Driver, which additionally includes support and improved performance for NVIDIA Texture Tools, Twinmotion 2022.1, OctaneRender 2021.1, V-Ray 5, Houdini 19 and more.

To help creatives power their brightest ideas, NVIDIA and Adobe have worked together to share the love this holiday season. Starting Nov. 12, get three months of Adobe Creative Cloud with the purchase of a select NVIDIA Studio laptop or desktop.

The Omniverse Expansion NVIDIA Omniverse's new capabilities further assist 3D artists and designers with their collaborative, creative workflows.

Coming soon, Omniverse VR introduces the world's first full-image, real-time ray-traced VR environment. Artists and designers in Omniverse will be able to collaboratively view and edit fully ray-traced 3D scenes in VR, with changes reflected in native apps, using Omniverse Create or View.

Omniverse Remote allows artists to connect and interact with Omniverse Apps and view fully ray-traced assets through iOS and Android devices. Mobile devices open up AR and virtual camera workflows such as face, body and hand-tracking, with more features to be added soon.

Omniverse Showroom is now available as an app in Omniverse Open Beta, enabling nontechnical users to experience Omniverse tech demos. Now, 3D artists can more quickly enter the Omniverse to experiment with real-time physics and rendering technologies.

Omniverse Connectors allow artists to work seamlessly across multiple creative apps to compose and visualize scenes in real time. New Connectors from Reallusion iClone, Lightmap HDR Light Studio, Replica Studios, RADiCAL and Esri's ArcGIS CityEngine are available to download.

Additional Omniverse Connectors, Extensions and content libraries coming soon include Adobe Substance 3D Material Plugin, Maxon Cinema4D, Clo Virtual Fashion, Daz3D, e-on software's PlantFactory, PlantCatalog and VUE, Golaem, Notch, Style3D, TwinBru and Wacom pen support.

Omniverse at Any Scale NVIDIA Omniverse Enterprise has moved out of beta and is now generally available for organizations of any scale to work virtually and collaborate in real time.

Purpose-built applications designed to accelerate different workflows in Omniverse are also now available, notably Omniverse Create - to interactively assemble, light, simulate and render scenes - and Omniverse View, used to review 3D design projects in stunning, physically accurate photorealism.

Popular connectors including Autodesk 3ds Max, Maya, Revit, Epic Games Unreal Engine, and Trimble SketchUp are now available for general release.

Logitech X NVIDIA Broadcast Logitech has integrated NVIDIA Broadcast's noise removal feature into its line of premium headset and microphone devices.

Players with an NVIDIA RTX GPU who've downloaded the latest version of G HUB can enable the NVIDIA Broadcast noise removal feature without installing a separate tool. Select your headset or mic in the G HUB app, click on the microphone and then on the NVIDIA tab, and follow the installation steps. This option is compatible with all Blue VO!CE enabled products, including the gaming headsets G733, PRO X Gaming and PRO X Wireless, and microphones Blue Yeti X, Blue Yeti X World of Warcraft Edition, Blue Yeti and Blue Yeti Nano.

Creator Updates in the November Studio Driver The Studio Suite continues to grow with NVIDIA Texture Tools 3, allowing users to create compressed, high-quality texture files. The new API allows 3D artists, game developers and rendering software to compress textures on the GPU, substantially reducing memory usage and accelerating creative workflows.

Twinmotion 2022.1 has enabled RTX ray tracing accelerated with RT Cores on NVIDIA RTX GPUs. With driver support for the latest update, architects can render photorealistic images and videos with a GeForce RTX 3080 GPU, significantly reducing wait times over previous generation GPUs.

OctaneRender 2021.1 motion blur scenes are accelerated on GeForce RTX 30 Series and NVIDIA RTX professional GPUs. Designers are no longer required to use workarounds to get realistic reflections, working with motion blur.
