| Posted: 12 Jan 2012 12:00 PM PST NVIDIA wasn't consulted by ESA in formulating their position on SOPA. Our position is this: we oppose piracy, as it hurts our game-developer partners. However, we do not support SOPA. We don't believe it is the right solution to the problem. We remain committed to working to address this problem in a constructive and fair manner.

| Get Your Game On with 3D Vision at CES Posted: 12 Jan 2012 10:44 AM PST  We're brimming with 3D goodness at the NVIDIA CES booth, showcasing a range of custom-made 3D gaming systems with the latest NVIDIA GeForce GTX and 3D Vision technology built by Origin, Digital Storm, Maingear and Falcon Northwest. Here's a snapshot of what's on display: 3D Racing Simulators Not one, but two full-motion 3D Racing Simulators from VRX are available to take for a test drive. Both feature iRacing, a driving simulation that is so realistic that real pros, such as Dale Earnhardt, Jr., use it to practice before big races. The simulators feature 3D Vision Surround on three 27'' 3D LightBoost monitors from Asus and three 27-in 3D LightBoost displays from Acer.
Ultimate Gaming PCs There are two GeForce GTX 580 SLI gaming systems you can test that are running Batman: Arkham City and Battlefield 3 in 3D on the newest 3D Vision monitors with LightBoost technology from BenQ.
We are also showing a sneak peek of Origin's upcoming Eon 17 3D Vision notebook, which features the GeForce GTX 580m GPU, and it is the fastest NVIDIA-based laptop on the planet. It features a stunning 17-inch HD display and can run Battlefield 3—with Ultra settings—in 3D.
3D Streaming Visit NVIDIA's booth in the South Hall, number 31431, to see all of this—and more! Can't make it to the show in person? Stay tuned to this blog, our Social Media Newsroom, Facebook and our Twitter feed for more photo and video updates from the CES 2012 show floor. |
| NVIDIA Day Two CES Recap – All Roads Lead to Automotive Posted: 11 Jan 2012 07:56 PM PST  Day Two of CES for NVIDIA was all about automotive. I'm one of the lucky NVIDIANs who gets to spend the show in the company of some very slick supercars. We have three different vehicles on display at CES: the Lamborghini Aventador, the Audi A7 and the Tesla Model S. You can read about them and watch a quick vid in this blog post. These are just 3 of the 35-plus car models that feature NVIDIA processors. As the sun sets and temperatures drop here in the desert, I wanted to give a recap of today's news, including our announcement at Audi's press conference, that the German carmaker will be using the Tegra 3 quad-core mobile processor in its full line of vehicles next year. Watch the video below, and visit our website for more automotive info. |
| Audi, Tesla, Lamborghini Bet On NVIDIA Processors In Las Vegas Posted: 11 Jan 2012 06:20 PM PST  The vast Las Vegas Convention Center is bursting at the seams with every consumer-electronics device imaginable, but right outside is an airy oasis in the NVIDIA Automotive tent. Even there, though, a steady crowd is passing through to see how NVIDIA processors aren't just helping to change the mobile landscape. They're also driving extraordinary innovation in auto technologies. NVIDIA is using CES to demonstrate our in-vehicle prowess in the recently launched Audi A7; the Tesla Model S sedan which goes on the market at mid-year; and the eye-popping Lamborghini Aventador supercar. Watch this video and read on to get more details on these NVIDIA-powered cars. Audi A7 Specs:

Automotive technology concepts Also being demonstrated there is the NVIDIA UI Composer – which allows manufacturers to rapidly iterate cluster designs – as well as a prototype instrument cluster. Check out this photo gallery for more on what NVIDIA Automotive is doing at CES 2012. |
| NVIDIA Tegra 3 Coming To Audi, Closing Gap Between Consumer and Auto Electronics Posted: 11 Jan 2012 01:49 PM PST  The seven-year lag it once took for consumer-electronics technology to find its way into your car is being cut to about a year, through a deep collaboration between Audi and NVIDIA.
At Audi's press conference at CES 2012, Ricky Hudi, head of electrics/electronics development, announced that the Tegra 3 quad-core mobile processor — which powers tablets and phones that are just hitting store shelves – will be in next year's Audi models. Consumer-electronics products have a lightning-fast development cycle. But it generally takes years to get new technology into cars, due to a meticulous engineering process that requires many thousands of parts to be seamlessly integrated. "Audi stands for progressive luxury and our new aim is to adopt the benchmarks of consumer electronics," Hudi said. He called NVIDIA a "strategic partner" that is enabling this to happen. Coming on stage as Audi's only guest, NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang said that the secret behind the extraordinarily fast incorporation of NVIDIA's latest technology into Audi is NVIDIA's Visual Computing Module (VCM). The 3×3-inch automotive-grade board contains a Tegra processor, memory and I/O controller, as well as a connector, which enable it to be easily integrated into the vehicle. "Audi is the first car company in the world to keep up with consumer electronics," Huang said. Gesturing to the VCM being held by Hudi, he added, "What you're seeing is the latest and greatest architecture from NVIDIA. It's truly unbelievable for a car company to move this fast." Tegra 3's ultra-low power consumption is one of its key attractions to Audi because it translates to lower fuel consumption. Just as the processor's fifth "ninja" core enables mobile devices to stay updated when they're turned off, it will enable cars to sync data – such as music, map destinations or weather forecasts—even when the engine's switched off. Hudi called VCM a great example of the kind of collaboration that stems from the companies' six-year extensive collaboration. |
