Use Cases and Applications

• Manufacturing: Companies like BMW leverage Nvidia’s simulation tools to design and optimise production lines, reducing time and costs associated with physical prototyping. 

• Healthcare: Nvidia’s Isaac for Healthcare platform enables the development of AI-driven medical robots for surgery, diagnostics and patient care, utilising simulation for training and validation. 

• Autonomous Vehicles: Collaborations with automotive companies, such as Toyota, integrate Nvidia’s AI systems into self-driving technologies, enhancing safety and efficiency. 

• Robotics Research: Research institutions and companies employ Nvidia’s platforms to develop and train robots capable of complex tasks, from warehouse automation to humanoid assistance.

Strategic Perspective
Nvidia’s strategic blend of best-in-class hardware, defensible software moats and end-to-end vertical integration has positioned it as the dominant force across the entire AI stack. The company’s GPUs and next-generation architectures are now the de facto standard for training large language models (LLMs) and other compute-intensive AI workloads. Complementing this hardware advantage is its tightly integrated CUDA ecosystem and software libraries such as cuDNN and TensorRT, which create high switching costs and give Nvidia a significant moat against competitors.
This comprehensive integration—from silicon and systems to software and services—enables NVIDIA to support both model training and inference at scale, a capability few others can match. Through platforms like DGX Cloud and partnerships with hyperscalers, NVIDIA is not just providing chips but effectively renting out AI infrastructure as a service, reinforcing its central role in the AI economy.
