|omni_long| is an extensible platform for virtual collaboration and real-time, physically accurate simulation. Creators, designers, researchers, and engineers can connect tools, assets, and projects to collaborate in a shared virtual space. Developers and software providers can also build and sell |ext|, |applications_short|, |connectors_short|, and |microsvc_short| on the |omni| platform to expand its functionality.

Omniverse Platform Components
--------------------------------------
|omni| is designed for maximum flexibility and scalability. It consists of five core components:

.. |ico-con| image:: /content/images/enterprise_ico_connect.png
.. |ico-kit| image:: /content/images/enterprise_ico_kit.png
.. |ico-rtx| image:: /content/images/enterprise_ico_rtx.png
.. |ico-sim| image:: /content/images/enterprise_ico_simulation.jpg

=================== =========================== ==========================================================
Component           Name                        Description
=================== =========================== ==========================================================
 |ico-nuc|          |nuc|__                     The central database and collaboration engine of |omni|. With |nuc_short|, users share and modify representations of virtual worlds.
 |ico-con|          |connect_short|__           The libraries that connect popular content creation tools to |omni|. With |connectors_short|, users continue to work in their favorite software applications, such as SketchUp, Maya, and Unreal Engine, while benefitting from other |omni| tooling.
 |ico-kit|          |kit|__                     The toolkit for building native |omni| |applications_short|, |ext_short|, and |microsvc_short|.
 |ico-rtx|          |rtx|__                     An advanced, multi-GPU renderer based on NVIDIA RTX™ that powers both real-time ray tracing and referenced path tracing.
 |ico-sim|          |sim|__                     A powerful suite of tools and SDKs that simulate a physically accurate world.

=================== =========================== ==========================================================
 |ico-nuc|          |launcher|__                The native client for downloading, installing, and updating |omni| |applications_short|, |ext_short|, and |connectors_short|. |launcher_short| is provided in both |omni_ind_long|__ and |omni_ent_long|__.
 |ico-con|          |ext|__                     The plugins that define the capabilities of |kit|-based |applications_short|. Developers use |ext_short| to create, modify, and extend the tools and workflows they need to be productive.
