MetAI to Debut AI-Powered Controller Simulator at NVIDIA GTC 2025, Advancing Digital Twins for Industrial Automation

Published

on

TAIPEI, March 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MetAI, a Taiwanese startup pioneering AI-powered digital twins to accelerate Physical AI and industrial automation, will showcase its latest technology developments at NVIDIA GTC 2025. With a focus on bridging operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) through simulation technologies, MetAI aims to unlock new efficiencies in how industries design, validate, and optimize automation solutions.

At GTC 2025, MetAI will introduce its Controller Simulator, a new technology concept that brings controller logic simulation directly into digital twins—allowing businesses to test, refine, and visualize automation workflows such as PLC programming within a physically accurate, AI-powered virtual environment.

Unveiling MetAI’s Controller Simulator: Laying the Foundation for Smarter Automation

The Controller Simulator, which will be demonstrated at MetAI’s booth in the GTC Industrial & Physical AI Pavilion, enables engineers to create, simulate, and validate automation logic (such as PLC codes) directly inside applications developed on the NVIDIA Omniverse platform and NVIDIA Isaac Sim, reducing testing time and enhancing cross-team collaboration.

This innovation aims to address a critical gap between OT and IT teams, helping automation designers and AI developers collaborate within the same digital environment.
Expected key benefits include:

Intuitive Logic Design: Design automation logic using an easy-to-understand ladder diagram UI, reducing the learning curve for non-technical users.Digital Twin Integration: The Controller Simulator integrates with NVIDIA Omniverse-based digital twins simulations allowing users to validate PLC logic in a physically accurate simulation environment before real-world deployment.AI-Powered Copilot Assistance: AI Agents assist users in generating and optimizing automation logic, significantly enhancing efficiency and reducing development time.Seamless PLC Deployment: The finalized logic is immediately deployable to physical PLCs without additional conversion steps, ensuring a smooth transition from simulation to real-world implementation.

Attendees at GTC Booth #134 will have the opportunity to experience a demo of the Controller Simulator, exploring how MetAI is developing new ways to bridge the physical and digital worlds for industrial automation.

Collaborating with Kenmec and Chief Logistics to Validate Real-World Value

Alongside the Controller Simulator, MetAI will also share its latest collaboration with Kenmec and Chief Logistics, showcasing how simulation-driven design could help accelerate warehouse automation projects in the future.

In this ongoing project, MetAI is working with Kenmec to simulate warehouse workflows, including equipment operation and smart sensor/camera placements, in an application built on NVIDIA Omniverse. The goal is to help Kenmec and Chief Logistics evaluate and optimize system designs before real-world installation—reducing costly on-site rework and enabling faster decision-making.

This work is a foundational step toward enabling fully integrated automation design and AI training pipelines for future smart factories and warehouses.

Aligned with NVIDIA “Mega” Blueprint Vision for Industrial AI

MetAI is an early adopter of Mega“, an NVIDIA Omniverse Blueprint for testing multi-robot fleets at scale in industrial digital twins.

As a member of NVIDIA Inception, MetAI is working closely with NVIDIA to explore new workflows that combine NVIDIA Omniverse, Isaac Sim, and MetAI’s own generative and simulation technologies—helping industries establish more scalable and intelligent automation development processes.

Published

By

MIAMI, May 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Brand Institute, the global leader in pharmaceutical and healthcare-related brand name and identity development, today announced the launch of its new suite of AI-Powered Solutions under the umbrella brand BI•Q™. These technologies are now actively integrated into the company’s market research and creative departments, enhancing the speed and strategic value of brand development for clients worldwide—and powering the future of great branding.

BI•Q is developed in close collaboration with Brand Institute’s interdisciplinary teams—spanning IT & IS, new product development, regulatory, trademarks, market research, strategy, and creative—and builds upon the company’s three decades of global branding and naming experience. These solutions strengthen the capabilities of Brand Institute’s expert staff while driving deeper alignment with the rigorous regulatory, trademark, and commercial standards that define success in the healthcare, pharmaceutical, and consumer branding industries.

“We’ve always believed that great branding starts with insight and sharp execution,” said Jim Dettore, Chairman and CEO of Brand Institute.

One of the biggest opportunities in developing AI solutions is the ability to leverage the specialized knowledge of Brand Institute’s regulatory team, which includes former government officials from the divisions responsible for drug name approval at the FDA, EMA, and Health Canada (proprietary/brand), as well as nonproprietary naming groups at the AMA (USAN) and WHO (INN). These experts have contributed to the development of policy and guidance aimed at preventing drug name–related medication errors. Their deep understanding of regulatory processes and global best practices enables BI•Q to generate solutions that are not only creative and distinctive, but also grounded in the realities of pharmaceutical name approval worldwide.

“Our team’s experience reviewing and approving names, as well as shaping policy pertaining to name safety, will be key to developing AI solutions that align with the real-world requirements of pharmaceutical branding and naming,” Dettore added.

From expanding the volume and elevating the quality of name generation to accelerating pattern recognition in market research, BI•Q delivers measurable efficiencies without compromising creativity, strategy, or confidentiality. All systems are built within a secure framework designed to safeguard client data and maintain the highest levels of confidentiality throughout every stage of the branding process.

“BI•Q empowers our teams to work smarter, faster, and with even greater precision—enhancing the expertise our clients rely on,” said Bill Johnson, President and Co-CEO of Brand Institute. “We’re continually exploring new use cases that will drive further efficiencies throughout our organization and deliver even greater value to our clients.”

One of the most exciting tools in the BI•Q suite is Brandi™, Brand Institute’s AI-powered name generator. Designed specifically for pharmaceutical and healthcare naming projects, Brandi addresses a critical industry need: helping to generate the high volume of quality names required so that—even after navigating today’s stringent regulatory and trademark hurdles—standout options remain. With many pharmaceutical naming projects now demanding the creation of over 3,000 name candidates, Brandi serves as a scalable solution that elevates the exceptional creative work Brand Institute’s team is known for across the industry.

“Brandi operates under the guidance of our creative team to generate thousands of name ideas, based on the input and strategic vision we develop in close collaboration with our clients,” said Scott Piergrossi, President of Creative at Brand Institute.

Brandi serves as a complementary tool within Brand Institute’s creative process, enhancing output while keeping the company’s expert naming team at the core. As one of many proprietary resources, Brandi is designed to deliver an array of creatively compelling, easy-to-pronounce, and strategically aligned name candidates, or what Brand Institute calls “Great Names at Scale.”
