绝了！NVIDIA最新开源了2,575 个高规格 3D 资产，整整472GB！！
从日常用品到工业设备，里面收录了不少现实环境里的物体。
一揽子，全部放进了 Hugging Face。
NVIDIA SimReady Assets。
绝不单纯是一个“免费建模素材库”！！
NVIDIA给每个3D 资产都带上了物理属性和语义信息，比如有多重，什么材质，重心在哪，用在什么场景等等，全都写进了参数里。
明摆着，就是用来让AI学习的！
学习怎么和真实的物理世界互动！
传统的3D资产在AI眼中，就是个有贴图的“视觉资产”，NVIDIA想做的是，把“视觉资产”变成AI可以理解的“物理资产”！
所以，这批资产的价值可想而知！
至少能够用到这些场景上！
机器人抓取和搬运训练，先在虚拟环境里练习拿取、摆放物体；
搭建工厂、仓库的数字孪生，测试设备和物体的布局；
配合合成数据工具，改变光照、视角、遮挡和物体位置，生成带标注的训练数据。
大家都在卷文字、代码与图像生成时，NVIDIA 开始为Physical AI（物理 AI） 铺设地基了。
不过，对大部分人来说，也是一个相当全面的3D资产素材库！
链接在下面，必须收藏了！

We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence.

I’m excited to see what shapes folks play with and make!
Here’s mine, as well as a look behind the scenes at some early prototypes.

Few asked. Yes, all our assets for @CashApp tags are AI generated.
That doesn’t mean it’s easy. Or one-shotted though.
We invest a ton in art direction, make each one a unique world, test way more concepts and even build characters based on our team’s likeness.
The fun part is we get to make much weirder stuff.
Ideas that would have been prohibitively expensive go live in weeks.

Go behind the scenes of Made by Sound.
A story of music, collaboration and craft with @fredagainagain1 and NEST Acoustics. Discover how sound brought the Apple Music logo to life, captured entirely in camera. Just music, made visible.

interesting design detail on the new HomePod mini: the inner mesh isn’t the same color as the outer mesh
the Blue HomePod has a Green mesh on the inside, the Green HomePod has a Blue mesh, and the Pink HomePod has an Orange mesh

I’m sure this one won’t make anyone angry. (But probably not here.)

🦾 Robotic milling is adding a new layer of precision to 3D-printed concrete.
In its latest experiments, Vertico combines 3D concrete printing with robotic milling to refine surfaces after printing. The process can smooth visible print layers, sharpen edges, and increase the accuracy of details and connections between elements.
The combination also allows different finishes to coexist within a single piece, preserving the layered texture of printed concrete in some areas while creating precisely milled, smooth surfaces in others.
By bringing additive and subtractive fabrication into the same workflow, these experiments explore new possibilities for the geometry, texture, and finishing of 3D-printed concrete.

776NYC is open.
A public retail space that’s always evolving, but always celebrating progress.
A physical expression of our optimism at 776 about what’s possible when we keep building.
Our first residency: the iconic @jugendingenieur.
Come see for yourself at 216 Lafayette.
