NVIDIA reports that Japan's Moonshot research program uses simulation and NVIDIA hardware in AIREC elder-care robot research.
Experimental · Japan Science and Technology Agency / Waseda University / NVIDIAIndia's Agriculture Ministry reported that a Kharif 2025 pilot sent local monsoon-onset forecasts by SMS to 38,845,214 farmers in 13 states, using a blend that included NeuralGCM, ECMWF AIFS, and 125 years of India Meteorological Department rainfall data.
Deployed · India Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare / University of Chicago Development Innovation Lab / India Meteorological Department / ECMWF / Google ResearchResearchers trained a deep-learning detector on microscopic bacterial microcolonies and visually similar chicken, spinach, and cheese debris, aiming to make food-safety screening faster and more reliable in messy samples.
Experimental · Korea University / Florida State University / Oregon State University / University of California, DavisA machine drives a vegetable field, photographs every plant, decides which are weeds, and burns them with short laser pulses. In 2024 field trials in New Jersey and New York, it controlled weeds as well as or better than the standard herbicide programme.
Deployed · Cornell AgriTech / Rutgers University / Western Growers / Carbon RoboticsWandercraft’s personal exoskeleton entered a clinical trial, with NVIDIA reporting simulation and AI use in its development.
Experimental · Wandercraft / NVIDIANVIDIA and GE HealthCare announced work on autonomous X-ray and ultrasound development using medical-device simulation.
