Tech Soft 3D Joins AOUSD, Adds Support to Accelerate 3D Interoperability with CAD in OpenUSD and NVIDIA Omniverse Workflows
BEND, Ore. & SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tech Soft 3D, a leading provider of engineering software development tools, and NVIDIA announced a collaboration centered around Universal Scene Description (OpenUSD) and the NVIDIA Omniverse™ platform. "Tech Soft 3D's investment in USD is great news for the entire industrial and CAD ecosystem," says Aaron Luk, Director of Product Management at NVIDIA. Tech Soft 3D has also officially joined the Alliance for OpenUSD (AOUSD) and will be contributing jointly with NVIDIA and other alliance members to the continued development and definition of the OpenUSD standard. Since 2022, NVIDIA has been licensing HOOPS Exchange, Tech Soft 3D's powerful CAD data access toolkit, to enable native CAD file conversion into OpenUSD — a critical step in allowing developers to build 3D digital twin solutions across industries. Now, with the latest release of HOOPS Exchange, developers can export data directly from the most popular CAD applications to USD, the foundational format for the NVIDIA Omniverse development platform and a key enabler of 3D interoperability across AI and simulation workflows and applications. This new capability supports seamless, high-fidelity translation of engineering data for use in visualization, simulation, and large-scale digital twin environments developed on Omniverse libraries. 'This evolution of HOOPS Exchange is a huge leap forward for the engineering software community,' said Gavin Bridgeman, CTO of Tech Soft 3D. 'Our mission has always been to empower developers with the best tools to unlock the full value of their rich engineering data. By enabling export to USD, we're accelerating how that data fuels next-gen digital twins, immersive simulations, and AI-powered experiences across both consumer and industrial applications.' With HOOPS Exchange now supporting export to USD, developers can bring rich engineering data from over 30 CAD file formats—including CATIA®, STEP, SOLIDWORKS®, and many others—into any 3D application that supports the USD format, enabling powerful workflows across a broad and growing ecosystem of USD-compatible tools. As USD rapidly becomes the interoperability standard for aggregating 3D and other digital content at scale, this capability empowers engineering software developers to deliver seamless, high-fidelity experiences for visualization, simulation, and digital twin creation across the entire product lifecycle. 'Tech Soft 3D's investment in USD is great news for the entire industrial and CAD ecosystem,' says Aaron Luk, Director of Product Management at NVIDIA. 'HOOPS offers an unparalleled opportunity for CAD users to seamlessly connect their data to USD, unleashing the immense power of its composition capabilities to aggregate diverse data sources and construct comprehensive digital twins for industrial and physical AI use cases.' Those in the Tech Soft 3D developer ecosystem can now better integrate with the OpenUSD ecosystem, empowering thousands of engineering software developers to explore and innovate without barriers.
