Siemens say the Industrial Metaverse will allow for the interaction of an infinite number of people and assets and offer full immersion into physics-based, photo-realistic, real-time simulations.
NVIDIA’s involvement and digital twins
Siemens and NVIDIA have a long-standing strategic partnership, focusing on industrial AI, digital twins, AI infrastructure and the Industrial Metaverse. The companies also collaborate on GPU manufacturing and AI data centre infrastructure.
In a 2025 demo showcasing the Siemens Xcelerator and NVIDIA Omniverse digital twin capabilities, Siemens showed how its tech stack can support manufacturing operations from design phase through to operations of advanced factories.
A key function of the technology showcased involved showing how building infrastructure and production lines can be bought together in one engineering environment.
This included using AI to simulate hundreds of potential factory layouts. Then after this process, photorealistic and physics-based models of their factories can be rendered.
Rev Lebaredian, Vice President of Omniverse and Simulation Technology at NVIDIA, said in 2025: “Digital twins have become essential in the age of industrial AI, enabling the simulation and optimisation of entire production lines and training robotics virtually before a single piece of hardware is installed.
