Siemens goes big on the industrial metaverse at CES 2024
German industrial giant Siemens is highlighting its developments in the industrial metaverse and generative AI at CES 2024 this week.
With partners including Sony, AWS, Red Bull Racing, Unlimited Tomorrow, Nvidia and Blendhub, Siemens has been developing a range of technologies for the industrial metaverse. The keynote by Roland Busch, CEO of Siemens, sees him looking more like metaverse partner Jensen Huang of Nvidia than a German business executive.
With Sony it has combined a head mounted display with 4K OLED Microdisplays with Siemens Xcelerator software. Expected to be available later in 2024, the technology will be available in Siemens’ NX Immersive Designer.
It is also working with AWS to make generative AI more accessible to application developers through combination of AWS Bedrock and Mendix Low-Code platform.
The Amazon Bedrock service offers a choice of high-performing foundation models from leading AI companies via a single API, along with security, privacy, and responsible AI capabilities and this will be combined with the Mendix low-code platform that is part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio.

“We envision the industrial metaverse as a virtual world that is nearly indistinguishable from reality, enabling people — along with AI — to collaborate in real time to address real-world challenges” said Siemens CEO Roland Busch. “This will empower customers to accelerate innovation, enhance sustainability and adopt new technologies faster and at scale, leading to a profound transformation of entire industries and our everyday lives. Together with our customers and partners, Siemens is proud to announce new products that will bring the industrial metaverse a step closer to all of us”.
“Siemens is making the industrial metaverse more accessible so that our customers can use it to solve their real-world problems faster, more sustainably and with greater efficiency – and we will make it available to companies of all sizes, so that everybody can turn their big ideas into world-changing innovations,” said Cedrik Neike, Member of the Managing Board of Siemens AG and CEO of Siemens Digital Industries.

As well as the focus on the industrial metaverse, Siemens launched its smart home energy management portfolio called Inhab at CES 2024. The suite of Intelligent Habitat solutions allows users to have full transparency and control over which sources are supplying energy at a given time and how that energy is being distributed throughout the home.
Features as real-time alerts, 24/7 monitoring and energy goal settings provide occupants with the transparency to make informed decisions. The highly accurate monitoring and management solutions will help to lower energy consumption and utility bills while increasing safety and capacity, says Busch.
