Since 1993, NVIDIA has pioneered the art and science of visual computing. The company’s technologies are transforming a world of displays into a world of interactive discovery -- for everyone from gamers to scientists, and consumers to enterprise customers. NVIDIA’s work in visual computing has led to thousands of patented inventions, breakthrough technologies and a globally recognized brand. For two decades, we’ve pioneered this uniquely powerful medium, which has transformed the PC from a tool for productivity into one for creativity and discovery.
At the core of our company is the GPU — the engine of modern visual computing — which we invented in 1999. The GPU has propelled computer graphics from a feature into an ever-expanding industry — encompassing video games, movie production, product design, medical diagnosis and scientific research, among many other categories. GPUs are now driving new fields like computer vision, image processing, machine learning and augmented reality.
