AI-Powered Digital Twins: Real-World Workflows from VNTANA, NVIDIA & Astec Industries

The Intelligent Metaverse is no longer a concept, it’s being built today at the intersection of AI and spatial computing. In this session, Ashley Crowder, CEO & Co-founder of VNTANA, and Chase Walker, Senior Simulation Engineer at Astec Industries, share how they partnered with NVIDIA to create automated CAD-to-Omniverse workflows that transform raw engineering data into AI-ready, simulation-accurate digital twins. Enabling the generation of simulated data to train AI for predictive maintenance, safety improvements, and operational efficiency in the field.

Attendees will gain:

• Proven strategies for scaling CAD-to-Omniverse automation across enterprise environments

• Best practices for preparing 3D assets to feed AI models and digital twins

• Firsthand insights from Astec’s real-world implementation and measurable results

• A forward-looking view of how AI and spatial computing are converging to deliver ROI across industries

Whether you’re an engineer, innovator, or digital transformation leader, this session offers a blueprint for turning 3D and AI into actionable intelligence today.
