NVIDIA XR Solutions
Extended reality (XR) will change the way we enjoy entertainment, interact with friends, and get our jobs done. From gaming to product design to cinematic experiences, NVIDIA delivers groundbreaking solutions for augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR)—including leading GPUs, drivers, and SDKs—for professionals, gamers, and developers.
SDKs for XR Development
NVIDIA CloudXR
CloudXR™ is NVIDIA's solution for streaming virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR) content from any OpenVR XR application on a remote server—cloud, data center, or edge. The CloudXR streaming solution includes NVIDIA RTX™ hardware, NVIDIA RTX Virtual Workstation (vWS) drivers, and the CloudXR software development kit (SDK).

NVIDIA VRWorks
NVIDIA VRWorks™ is a comprehensive suite of APIs and libraries that enable VR application and headset developers to create amazing virtual reality experiences, improving VR performance and visual quality. VRWorks enables a new level of presence by bringing physically realistic visuals, sound, touch interactions, and simulated environments to virtual reality.
Learn moreNVIDIA Deep Learning Super Sampling
Deliver truly immersive graphics without sacrificing performance. NVIDIA Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) leverages the power of Tensor Cores on RTX GPUs to upscale and sharpen lower-resolution input to a higher-resolution output using a generalized deep learning network trained on NVIDIA supercomputers. The result is reduced render time per frame, which frees up compute power to maximize ray-tracing, AI, and other GPU-powered processes that enhance an XR experience.
