DOSCH DESIGN 3D assets in OpenUSD format inside NVIDIA Omniverse for a digital twin

 

Professional 3D Solutions in the OpenUSD Standard for the Industrial Metaverse and Digital Twins

In short: DOSCH DESIGN delivers high-quality 3D assets in the future-proof OpenUSD (Universal Scene Description) and USDZ formats. They drop directly into NVIDIA Omniverse and Siemens Xcelerator, act as a single source of truth across DCC and engineering tools, support non-destructive layering and global collaboration, generate synthetic data for AI and robotics, and run on mobile and AR via Apple ARKit. AI-free and royalty-free.

DOSCH DESIGN is consistently expanding its portfolio with high-quality 3D assets in the future-proof OpenUSD (Universal Scene Description) and USDZ formats. This strategic focus supports companies in realizing complex digital twin projects and developing the industrial metaverse. Our models are optimized for direct use in powerful ecosystems such as NVIDIA Omniverse and Siemens Xcelerator, bridging the gap between design, engineering and simulation.

What is OpenUSD and why does it matter for digital twins?

OpenUSD (Universal Scene Description) is an open, extensible framework, originally developed by Pixar, for describing, composing and exchanging complex 3D scenes. Unlike a simple mesh format, it carries geometry, materials, hierarchy, variants and metadata in one consistent structure. That makes it the de facto backbone for digital twins and the industrial metaverse: a single, reliable description of an asset that every tool in the pipeline can read the same way. USDZ is its compact, single-file variant, optimized for mobile devices and augmented reality.

How do DOSCH USD models integrate into industrial ecosystems?

Data interoperability is a key factor in Industry 4.0. DOSCH DESIGN USD models act as standardized building blocks that can be implemented in Siemens Teamcenter X, Siemens Process Simulate or NVIDIA Isaac Sim without time-consuming conversion. By using the USD format as a single source of truth, we enable seamless data exchange between various DCC (Digital Content Creation) tools and industrial planning applications. This significantly accelerates time-to-market and reduces potential errors when importing complex geometries.

Why is OpenUSD optimized for collaboration and simulation?

The OpenUSD format offers far more than just 3D geometry. It enables non-destructive workflows through intelligent layering and referencing:

  • Hierarchical structure: our assets support complex scene graphs, simplifying the management of variants in large assemblies.
  • Global collaboration: thanks to the robust USD architecture, teams can work on the same scenes simultaneously, revolutionizing collaborative workflows across different locations.
  • Synthetic data generation: for training artificial intelligence (AI) and autonomous robotics systems, our 3D models provide the geometric precision and variance needed to run valid simulations in virtual environments.

How do USDZ assets extend from AR to mobile?

In addition to the heavyweights of industrial simulation, we also provide assets in the compact USDZ format. This guarantees the availability of your 3D data on mobile devices and in augmented reality (AR), for example via Apple ARKit. Whether for virtual factory tours, maintenance manuals or presentations, DOSCH DESIGN provides the universal data foundation for every touchpoint in the digital product lifecycle.

FAQ: OpenUSD, USDZ and Omniverse - brief & sweet

What is the difference between OpenUSD and USDZ?

OpenUSD is the full, extensible framework for composing and exchanging complex 3D scenes with layering, variants and metadata. USDZ is its compact, single-file package, optimized for mobile devices and augmented reality, for example via Apple ARKit.

Can I use DOSCH USD assets directly in NVIDIA Omniverse?

Yes. Our models are optimized for direct use in NVIDIA Omniverse and Siemens Xcelerator, and can be implemented in tools such as Siemens Teamcenter X, Siemens Process Simulate or NVIDIA Isaac Sim without time-consuming conversion.

Why is USD a single source of truth?

Because one consistent USD description can be read the same way by every DCC and engineering tool in the pipeline. This removes repeated conversions, reduces import errors on complex geometries and accelerates time-to-market.

Are the assets suitable for synthetic data and AI training?

Yes. Our 3D models provide the geometric precision and variance needed to run valid simulations in virtual environments, for training AI and autonomous robotics systems.

Are these AI-generated 3D models?

No. Every DOSCH model is 100% hand-modeled with clean topology and clear, royalty-free licensing - unlike AI-generated meshes with uncertain quality and rights.
