Ouster announces the Rev8 OS digital lidar sensors will integrate with NVIDIA Jetson, emphasizing a joint effort to optimize 3D perception for Physical AI.

Rev8 is built on next-generation Ouster Silicon, delivering native color lidar with doubled range and resolution, while prioritizing safety, reliability, and scalability.

NVIDIA Isaac Sim native support enables developers to generate synthetic data from accurate 3D lidar models to train perception pipelines before real-world deployment.

Rev8 integrates with NVIDIA Isaac Sim to produce physically accurate 3D lidar models for synthetic data used in ML training and validation.

Jetson platform integrations include dedicated JetPack plugins for seamless Rev8 data ingestion into NVIDIA perception pipelines, with edge processing optimizations on Jetson Orin and Jetson Thor for real-time SLAM, obstacle detection, and sensor fusion.

Edge processing is enabled on Jetson platforms, tuned for real-time 3D SLAM, obstacle detection, and sensor fusion at the edge.

Forward-looking statements in the release discuss risks and uncertainties, including contract execution, market demand, regulatory changes, IP protections, and other risk factors outlined in Ouster's filings.

The collaboration expands the robotics ecosystem by aligning Ouster's hardware and software with NVIDIA's accelerated computing stack to support Physical AI.

CEO Angus Pacala says the partnership provides high-fidelity 3D lidar data that NVIDIA tools can leverage, speeding up Physical AI capabilities across sensing, thinking, and acting in real-world settings.

Rev8 sensors feature native color lidar and, powered by Ouster Silicon, offer significantly greater range and resolution, designed for safe, reliable, and cost-effective scaling.

The release presents the collaboration as a pivotal advancement for the robotics community, expanding access to high-performance 3D perception data and tools for developers and organizations.

Ouster is a San Francisco-based leader in sensing and perception for Physical AI, offering a unified platform of digital lidar, cameras, AI compute, sensor fusion, and perception software with a global presence.
