Amazon Integrates NVIDIA Digital Twin Tech for Automated Device Manufacturing

August 11, 2025

Details

  • In August 2025, Amazon Devices & Services launched a new AI-powered manufacturing solution utilizing NVIDIA digital twin technologies to achieve zero-touch production, allowing robotic arms to inspect and manage various devices using only synthetic data for training.
  • The rollout merges Amazon-developed software with NVIDIA Isaac technologies—such as Isaac Sim for robotics simulation, Isaac ROS for generating robotic motion, and FoundationPose for object tracking—operating on AWS platforms including EC2 G6 instances and Amazon Bedrock.
  • For each device, the system produces more than 50,000 synthetic images from CAD models, enabling robots to adapt to new shapes and sizes for assembly, testing, packaging, and quality control without physical prototyping or hardware changes.
  • This method surpasses older manufacturing models that relied on costly prototypes and special equipment for each product, instead offering rapid adaptability via software updates.
  • The design is modular, making it possible to incorporate advanced AI models such as NVIDIA Cosmos Reason, while NVIDIA cuMotion equips Jetson AGX Orin modules for safe, real-time robotic maneuvering.

Impact

Amazon’s adoption of NVIDIA digital twins signals a major leap in smart manufacturing, streamlining the path from design to production and minimizing reliance on traditional machinery. The initiative aligns Amazon with a broader industry push toward AI-driven factories, seen in recent moves by giants like Schneider Electric. This innovation may give Amazon an edge in automated production amidst a competitive landscape featuring Siemens, ABB, and other industrial automation leaders.
