Introduction New techniques in 3D world modeling and AI-driven scene interpretation are unleashing a revolution in industries such as mining and construction. The global LiDAR market — valued at USD 2.74 billion in 2024 and projected to reach USD 4.71 billion by 2030 (9.5% CAGR) is generating unprecedented volumes of spatial sensor data. A single […]

Introduction  Computer vision workloads are compute-intensive and expensive, forcing developers to choose between performance and cost when processing millions of images for applications ranging from autonomous vehicles to medical diagnostics. OpenCV (Open Computer Vision) is an open-source library designed to make computer vision and image processing fast, easy to use, and portable. It’s one of […]

Discover how AWS Visual Asset Management System (VAMS) orchestrates 3D assets from design tools to customer channels, with a proof of concept demonstrating automated pipeline processing and real-world implementation. Overview AWS Visual Asset Management System (VAMS) functions as both a Digital Asset Management (DAM) system and a 3D-aware orchestration layer. VAMS can act as the […]

Introduction Vision systems are increasingly being deployed for industrial inspection. Mounted on drones, ground robots, or integrated into fixed and portable monitoring cameras, these systems capture massive volumes of 2D and 3D data that must be processed to yield actionable insights. Advances in computer vision—enhanced more recently by AI and agentic AI—are transforming what was […]

Introduction 3D product visualization and virtual prototyping are integral to product design, especially in industries including Manufacturing and Automotive. Last year, teammates from the AWS Spatial Computing community wrote a blog post about Autodesk VRED, a software package that helps designers’ prototype and collaborate on high-quality streams or renders of engineering artifacts. That post, titled […]

The June 28th episode of the AWS Developer’s Podcast delves into the topic of spatial computing, an emerging field that encompasses applications and experiences operating within a 3D space. Spatial computing often uses immersive technologies such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR) to blend the digital and physical worlds. Sebastien […]

BUILD, DELIVER, MANAGE BLOG SERIES: BUILD Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), and Mixed Reality (MR) are seeing explosive growth. Together referred to as Extended Reality (XR), AR and VR are gaining interest from consumers and developers alike; with a report from Omdia estimating that consumer spend on VR content will be worth $7.5 billion […]
