AI computing enables every industry to find the higher intelligence in big data to solve the most challenging problems. From manufacturing to medicine to self-driving cars, AI computing is revolutionizing how we interact with — and learn from — technology.

Deep learning is a subset of machine learning in which neural networks learn many levels of abstraction. This is what puts the "deep" in deep learning. Each layer categorizes some kind of information, refines it, and passes it along to the next. The parallel computing nature of GPUs accelerates this process to enable breakthroughs like facial recognition, real-time voice translation, and self-driving cars.

DirectX 12 Ultimate is the newest version of the API and new gold standard for the next-generation of games. DirectX 12 Ultimate takes games to a whole new level of realism with support for ray tracing and more.

Machine learning uses sophisticated neural networks to create systems that can perform feature detection from massive amounts of data. The GPU's computing power and parallel-processing efficiency enables neural networks to train far larger training sets, significantly faster, using far less data center resources.

MXM (Mobile PCI Express Module), the result of a joint design effort between NVIDIA and the industry's leading notebook manufacturers, provides a consistent interface for mobile PCI Express graphics.

Universal Scene Description (USD) is an open-source 3D scene description and file format developed by Pixar for content creation and interchange among different tools. As a result of its power and versatility, it’s being widely adopted in visual effects, architecture, design, robotics, manufacturing, and other disciplines. USD is the foundational technology behind NVIDIA Omniverse™. 

TXAA anti-aliasing creates a smoother, clearer image than any other anti-aliasing solution by combining high-quality MSAA multisample anti-aliasing, post processes, and NVIDIA-designed temporal filters.

VR changes how we enjoy gaming, product design, movies, and even how we collaborate.
