    Frequently Asked Questions

    NVIDIA Omniverse is a platform of APIs, services, and software development kits (SDKs) that enable developers to build generative AI-enabled tools, applications, and services for industrial digitalization workflows. Applications built on Omniverse core technologies fundamentally transform complex 3D workflows, allowing individuals and teams to build unified tool and data pipelines and simulate large-scale, physically accurate virtual worlds for industrial and scientific use cases.

    There are two methods to get started with developing on NVIDIA Omniverse:

    Platform SDK
    For developers looking to build an application from scratch, NVIDIA offers Omniverse Kit SDK and developer tooling, including the Omniverse App Streaming API and the legacy Omniverse Launcher, to get started.

    Download the platform SDK here.

    Cloud APIs
    For developers looking to take only the pieces they need, NVIDIA offers Omniverse core technologies that are exposed as simple APIs that developers can self-host on any cloud, multi-cloud, or virtual private cloud, or they can be consumed as a managed service from NVIDIA Omniverse Cloud on Microsoft Azure.

    Omniverse core APIs give developers the ability to integrate USD data ingest and RTX-enabled output.
