CERN European Center for Nuclear Research Digital Twin in NVIDIA Omniverse

June-August 2024, Internship at CERN


During summer 2024, I was a summer student at CERN openlab. CERN, the European Center for Nuclear Research, in Geneva, Switzerland, is the largest particle physics laboratory in the world, and is the site where the world wide web was invented (And I interned there!!). CERN Openlab is CERN's public-private technology development institution.

My project involved using NVIDIA Omniverse, their 3D software, to create, display, and simulate a 3D digital twin of CERN. The 3D assets were already in place; my role was to migrate them to Omniverse and create tools to take advantage of the software, like the navigation tool in the above video.

I presented my project in more detail in front of my internship cohort. Watch me present here!
