NVIDIA Holoscan is a platform for building real-time AI applications at the edge, from medical imaging to robotics. HoloHub is its companion repository: a growing collection of reference applications and components that demonstrate what’s possible. We wanted to explore how a general-purpose coding agent could use the same examples, documentation, and development tools available to an engineer…

Modern vision-language models (VLMs) can support tasks such as visual question answering, captioning, and image-text reasoning. In practice, however, the data needed to adapt these models may be distributed across institutions or organizations that cannot centralize their raw records. Federated learning provides a way to coordinate training across these data-local sites. For VLMs…

Robots need policies that can adapt to their sensors, environments, and tasks while running on onboard computing hardware. World models offer a foundation for learning physical interactions, but their size can make on-device deployment difficult. This changes with the new NVIDIA Cosmos 3 Edge. Cosmos 3 Edge is a 4B omni-model (with a 2B NVIDIA Nemotron-based reasoner) in the Cosmos 3 family.

Spectrum is one of the most valuable assets in wireless communications. Over the last 30 years, telecom operators in the US have spent more than $240B to acquire wireless spectrum. A goal of a radio access network (RAN) system is to extract the maximum spectral efficiency (bits/second/Hertz) possible, which translates into more capacity, stronger network resilience with fewer dropped packets…

Generative AI workloads are rapidly outgrowing the memory and compute budget of single GPUs. For inference developers building media generation pipelines, the challenge is scaling across multiple devices without sacrificing the critical optimizations—like kernel fusions, memory planning, and quantization—that NVIDIA TensorRT delivers for production deployments. Multi-device inference support…

When AlphaFold2 revolutionized drug discovery in 2020, its success relied entirely on the roughly 170,000 protein structures collected by scientists since 1971 and preserved in the Protein Data Bank. Measured data is the backbone for all AI models and workflows that process data as it’s created, act on what matters in real time, and analyzes data for deep insights. With the current rise of modern…

Physical AI—robots working autonomously alongside people in factories, warehouses, hospitals, and homes—is arriving faster than most expected. Traditional safety which was built for structured environments can not work anymore as the spaces become more unstructured and robots move out of cages. AI-driven safety is the key. Marking a major milestone in the arrival of physical AI…

Federated learning (FL) research often begins with a deceptively simple question: What should we try next? A new aggregation rule, a FedProx coefficient, a server optimizer setting, a SCAFFOLD variant, or a model architecture tweak may all look promising before an experiment starts. After the run finishes, the harder questions begin: Did the change actually improve the metric?

A massive-scale X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) enables tracking structural and electron dynamics in novel systems, including fusion materials, semiconductors, batteries, and catalysis. It produces ultrashort X-ray pulses that can record the movements of atoms and electrons. These instruments can detect the smallest change in material structure caused by defects and other influences.

The automotive cockpit is undergoing a fundamental shift from rule-based interfaces to agentic, multimodal AI systems capable of reasoning, planning, and acting. In most vehicles on the road today, in-vehicle assistants still rely on fixed command-response patterns: interpret a phrase, trigger an action, reset. While effective for well-defined tasks, this approach doesn’t scale to modern…
