NVIDIA describes Korea partnerships spanning semiconductor design, autonomous driving and robotics

NVIDIA said it is helping advance Korea’s physical AI ecosystem by applying accelerated computing, AI and simulation across semiconductor manufacturing, autonomous vehicles and robotics. Samsung Electronics is using cuISS, cuDSS, cuEST, cuEquivariance and PhysicsNeMo to speed materials, device and thermal-mechanical analysis, including an AI homogenization workflow that reduced simulation time from about 18 hours to 41 seconds. Kakao Mobility plans to use Hyperion, DRIVE AGX Thor and Halos for level 4 development, while LG Electronics has demonstrated Isaac GR00T-powered robot manipulation and factory simulation in a real manufacturing environment.
