GTC Paris – AVES Reality announces plans to support the NVIDIA Omniverse Blueprint for Smart City AI, a reference framework for building, testing, and optimizing AI agents in simulation ready digital twins. As part of this initiative, AVES Reality contributes automated, simulation-ready 3D digital twins from geodata, enabling AI development and testing in virtual urban environments.
Cities face mounting challenges – from traffic management and energy distribution to waste reduction and real-time crisis response. Solving these requires not just data, but intelligent AI agents validated in environments that reflect reality. AVES Reality’s SimReady digital twins provide georeferenced, high-fidelity urban models where these agents can be trained and validated at scale. Integrated with NVIDIA Omniverse Blueprint for Smart City AI, which incorporates physical AI, this approach enables a faster and safer deployment of smart city systems than ever before.
AVES Reality joins a large and growing ecosystem of companies developing solutions to tackle such urban problems. This step builds on the breakthrough collaboration with NVIDIA partner Linker Vision, where AVES Reality enabled the building of a digital twin of Kaohsiung, Taiwan – marking a milestone in the city’s Smart City initiative.
“We’re turning our vision into reality. By supporting NVIDIA Omniverse Blueprint for Smart City AI, we’re not just creating digital twins – we’re enabling the future of physical simulation for more intelligent and safer cities,” said Severin Knebel, CTO of AVES Reality.
