Audio cues can sometimes be crucial for success in games. Developers frequently design the sound environment for their experiences to be not only rich and immersive, but to also contain hints about approaching enemies or danger. Players who are hard of hearing can miss out on this, and it's not fair for them to be disadvantaged due to a disability. A product called Audio Radar launched at CES 2024 and it can help turn sound signals into visual cues, so that gamers with hearing loss can «see the sound,» according to the company AirDrop Gaming LLC.

Ansys is working with Nvidia on introducing better sensors for self-driving cars and other autonomous vehicles.
Pittsburgh-based Ansys is a simulation software company that has created the Ansys AVxcelerate Sensors within Nvidia Drive Sim, a scenario-based autonomous vehicle (AV) simulator powered by Nvidia’s Omniverse. This integration aims to enhance the development and validation of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and AV perception systems through high-fidelity sensor simulations.
Ansys is showing the tech — which essentially solves the tough physics calculations in a scene involving multiple moving objects — off at the CES 2024 tech trade show in Las Vegas next week.
The incorporation of Ansys AVxcelerate Sensors into Nvidia Drive Sim provides car makers access to highly accurate sensor simulation outputs. These outputs are instrumental in training and validating perception ADAS/AV systems, ensuring that autonomous vehicles are equipped to navigate roadways safely and reliably, even in critical edge cases.

Engineers working on AV technology face the monumental challenge of ensuring the safety and reliability of sensor suites and software in real-world driving scenarios. Ansys and Nvidia jointly address this challenge by bridging the gap between reality and simulation. The collaboration leverages Ansys’ physics solvers for camera, lidar, radar, and thermal camera sensors within Nvidia Drive Sim’s realistic and scalable 3D environments for scenario generation.
“Integrating Ansys AVxcelerate Sensors simulation with Drive Sim offers developers greater flexibility to
develop, test, and validate their autonomous vehicle software,” said Zvi Greenstein, vice president of
autonomous vehicle infrastructure at Nvidia, in a statement.
Nvidia said that an open ecosystem approach is foundational to collaboration. Nvidia said its Omniverse, which is a metaverse for engineers, enables users to develop OpenUSD-based 3D workflows. OpenUSD’s flexibility and modularity allows developers to not only build scalable simulations but also acts as a data factory for AI model training. Developers can harness Omniverse to build their custom synthetic data generation pipelines and generate annotated data to train the on-board computer vision models. The connection with Ansys AVxcelerate Sensors, built with application programming interfaces (APIs),
facilitates a seamless integration of Ansys physics solvers into Nvidia’s 3D virtual world.
“Perception is crucial for AV systems, and it requires
