robots The company is preparing for a robot takeover in warehouses as AI 
progresses KION Group has already successfully piloted the Mega blueprint 

Nvidia is preparing for the rise of robots with a new fleet manager designed 
to help companies manage their digital workforce more easily. 

In an announcement, director of product and technical marketing for Nvidia 
Omniverse Madison Huang stated that the physical industrial market is still 
waiting for its own software-defined moment, and we know Nvidia is betting 
big on robotics. 

At a tech conference late last year, VP of Omniverse and Simulation 
Technology Rev Lebaredian declared that humanoid AI-powered robots are 
destined for businesses, and eventually homes, on a global scale. If there 
was ever a time for Nvidia to lay the foundations for a robotic future, its 
now. Nvidia Unveils Mega Omniverse Blueprint 

The announcement of a new tool designed to build industrial robot fleet 
digital twins comes as Nvidia launches a series of AI Blueprints to help 
customers build agentic AI applications. 

Together with partner blueprints, Nvidia launched a series of its own, 
including four Omniverse blueprints to help with digital twinning. The 
company envisions this one in particular  Mega  aiding in the development, 
testing and optimization of physical AI and robot fleets at scale in a 
digital twin so that they can be deployed into real-world facilities. 

Huang added that the increasing complexity of sensors and robot autonomy has 
made it more challenging to safely deploy such technologies without 
disruption, hence the plans to help create digital twins of environments and 
hardware. 

The Director explained how Mega works: With Mega-driven digital twins, 
including a world simulator that coordinates all robot activities and sensor 
data, enterprises can continuously update facility robot brains for 
intelligent routes and tasks for operational efficiencies. 

Supply chain solutions company KION Group, an early tester of Nvidias Mega 
blueprint, noted how it can capture and digitalize a warehouse digital twin 
in Omniverse by using computer-aided design files, video, lidar, image and 
AI-generated data. CEO Rob Smith added: We are reinventing warehouse 
automation. You might also like Will 2025 be humanoid robotics' breakout
