NavVis, a maintenance and monitoring company in the digital twin industry, has collaborated with digital twin solutions provider Nvidia to facilitate the streaming of large-scale reality-capture data for industrial settings. 

Under the collaboration, NavVis’ mobile mapping system, NavVis VLX, and spatial data platform NavVis IVION will be integrated with NVIDIA Omniverse via the Universal Scene Description (USD) framework. NavVis VLX and NavVis IVION allow users to efficiently produce and control 3D digital replicas of various settings, ranging from tiny office spaces to vast factories covering millions of square meters. Nvidia’s Omniverse platform enables users to create metaverse technologies based on Pixar's Universal Scene Description system. 

Manufacturers that are undergoing costly transformations of their factory environments can use NavVis IVION to model workflows or refine the maintenance of existing surroundings. These digital replicas can be employed for cooperative efforts, using the GPU-enhanced graphics and simulation features of Omniverse.

NavVis is a provider of 3D scans and digital twin (DT) solutions to the manufacturing and construction industries. The company enables businesses to virtually monitor and maintain buildings, make operational decisions, and remotely collaborate with suppliers to discuss changes. The company operates a B2B business model, where it has partnered with several companies globally that provide NavVis’s mapping, software, and hardware solutions to end consumers. The company has over 400 clients, including renowned global manufacturing firms, such as Siemens, Volkswagen, and BMW, that use the company's technology to produce visualizations of their factories and production resources.
