Breakthroughs in AI for Graphics
Thanks for joining us at the SIGGRAPH 2020 virtual conference, where we shared the latest innovations in research and AI for graphics. All of our sessions are now available to watch on-demand. Explore how AI is transforming the future of design and how NVIDIA Research is driving advanced breakthroughs in graphics workflows and GPU-accelerated software.
Discover how brilliant designers, creators, and engineers are using artificial intelligence to push the limits of artistic expression.
From real-time ray tracing to AI-enhanced features, NVIDIA RTX™ has transformed creative workflows with advanced capabilities. At SIGGRAPH, our virtual demos will showcase the newest tools and techniques powered by NVIDIA® Quadro RTX™ GPUs.
A team of NASA scientists and engineers used the world's fastest supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory to simulate retropropulsion, producing a massive 150 terabytes (TB) of data. This demo uses NVIDIA IndeX® and GPUDirect® Storage to allow researchers to fly through the massive dataset in real time and continue to navigate through it as the data continuously updates.
Blackmagic Design has integrated GPU acceleration for advanced video editing and visual effects, including several exciting AI-based features in the DaVinci Resolve Studio 16 creative app. These effects and tools are accelerated with NVIDIA CUDA® and Tensor Cores, empowering editors to produce high-quality videos in seconds instead of hours and iterate faster than ever before.
Blender is an open-source 3D software package that comes with the Cycles Renderer. Cycles is already a GPU-enabled path tracer, now supercharged with the latest generation of RTX GPUs. Furthering the rendering speed, RTX AI features such as the NVIDIA Optix™ denoiser infers rendering results for a truly interactive ray-tracing experience.
StyleGAN2, developed by NVIDIA Research, uses transfer learning to produce seemingly infinite numbers of portraits in an infinite variety of painting styles. In this new demo, the resulting model allows users to create and fluidly explore portraits by separately controlling the content, identity, expression, and pose of the subject.
AI is bringing content creation to the next level. Explore some of the most exciting work and discover the newest possibilities in real-time ray tracing and AI.
NVIDIA RTX has transformed the graphics industry. From accelerated performance to the rapid rise of RTX adoption, learn how real-time ray tracing has completely changed what's possible in content creation.

Tuesday, 8/25, and Wednesday, 8/26, 09:30-10:00 (PDT)
Real-time ray tracing, artificial intelligence, and GPU-accelerated workflows are transforming the way content is created, so we’re partnering with the world’s top digital media schools to bring the latest technology to the next generation of creative professionals. Join an open dialogue led by NVIDIA program expert Andy Cook to learn more about the Studio Education Partner Program, its benefits, and how you can be a part of it.
Thursday, 8/27, 09:30-10:00 (PDT)
NVIDIA Teaching Kits are available for qualified university educators interested in course solutions across deep learning, accelerated computing, and robotics. Educators can integrate lecture materials, hands-on courses, GPU cloud resources, and more into their curriculum. The DLI University Ambassador Program certifies qualified educators to deliver hands-on DLI workshops to university faculty, students, and researchers at no cost. Join an open dialogue led by NVIDIA program experts Andy Cook and Joe Bungo to learn more.
NVIDIA’s accepted papers at this year’s virtual SIGGRAPH feature a range of groundbreaking research in the field of computer graphics. From rendering direct lighting from millions of dynamic light sources to improved color distributions for image editing and compression, explore the work we’re bringing to the SIGGRAPH community.
