NVIDIA Launches Nemotron 3 Nano Omni Model, Unifying Vision, Audio and Language for up to 9x More Efficient AI Agents

This approach increases latency through repeated inference passes, fragments context across modalities, and adds cost and inaccuracies over time.

By combining vision and audio encoders within its 30B-A3B, hybrid mixture-of-experts architecture, Nemotron 3 Nano Omni eliminates the need for separate perception models, driving inference efficiency at scale. It pairs this efficiency with strong multimodal perception accuracy, enabling AI systems to achieve 9x higher throughput than other open omni models with the same interactivity. The result is lower costs and better scalability without sacrificing responsiveness or quality.

In agentic systems, Nemotron 3 Nano Omni can work alongside proprietary cloud models or other NVIDIA Nemotron open models — such as Nemotron 3 Super for high-frequency execution or Nemotron 3 Ultra for complex planning — as well as proprietary models from other providers, to power sub-agents for agentic workflows such as computer use, document intelligence and audio-video reasoning.

Tapping your genome with AI and quantum computing could deliver on the promise of personalized medicine — but practical and ethical hurdles remain

Combining AI with quantum computing could enable doctors and researchers to analyze the human body at an unprecedented molecular level, unlocking breakthroughs in personalized medicine. Yet significant quantum technology hurdles remain before this vision becomes reality.

VirtuCamera 2 Has Arrived

It’s been a very long time, but the wait is finally over. If you’re not familiar with it, VirtuCamera by The Weird Byte is a real-time camera motion capture mobile app, originally released in 2021. It now returns with its biggest update yet, featuring a full-screen viewport, a redesigned user interface, and, most importantly, support for Android, as well as compatibility with newer versions of Blender, Cinema 4D, Maya, 3ds Max, and Houdini.

You can now use it with Blender 5.1, 5.0, and LTS 4.5, Maya and 3ds Max 2026 and 2027, Houdini 21, and Cinema 4D 2026. On top of that, you can also build your own integration using the PyVirtuCamera Python API.

More features are also planned for the near future, including joystick support, custom script handling, and slider presets for commonly used values. Support for Unreal and Unity is “definitely possible”, according to the developers, “it depends on demand, how the app evolves, and where we focus next”

Why newborn memory circuits start crowded, then slim down as brains mature

The hippocampus is a key brain region involved in memory formation and spatial orientation. It transforms short-term memories into long-term ones, helping us retain and build upon our experiences. Researchers led by Magdalena Walz Professor for Life Sciences Peter Jonas at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) focus precisely on this area of the brain.

Their latest study, published in Nature Communications, reveals how the central neural network in the hippocampus develops after birth.

Imagine a blank sheet of paper in front of you. There’s nothing on it so you start writing, adding more and more information. This is the principle of tabula rasa—the “blank slate.”

AI tool may spot ADHD years before children are diagnosed

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) affects millions of children, yet many go years without a diagnosis, missing the chance for early support that can change long-term outcomes even when early signs are present. In a new study, Duke Health researchers found that artificial intelligence tools can analyze routine electronic health records to accurately estimate a child’s risk of developing ADHD years before a typical diagnosis. By reviewing patterns in everyday medical data, the approach could help flag children who may benefit from earlier evaluation and follow-up.

The research, published in Nature Mental Health, highlights how powerful insights can come from information already collected during regular health care visits to help support early decision making by primary care providers.

“We have this incredibly rich source of information sitting in electronic health records,” said Elliot Hill, lead author of the study and data scientist in the Department of Biostatistics & Bioinformatics at Duke University School of Medicine.

An interplanetary shortcut can speed up trips to Mars

Whether it’s robotic rovers heading to Mars or, one day, a crew of astronauts, a round-trip journey is an incredibly long one. But there may be a way to find a shortcut. A new study published in the journal Acta Astronautica suggests that hundreds of days could be shaved off a return trip to the Red Planet by using the early orbital data of asteroids. This could bring the total mission time down to as low as 153 days.

To identify optimal routes and calculate fuel needs, planners of interplanetary missions use precise planetary data. Sending missions to other worlds rarely involves early orbital data from asteroids.

When it comes to Mars missions, a key planning consideration is a phenomenon known as Mars opposition. This occurs roughly every 26 months when Earth passes directly between the sun and Mars. During this alignment, the two planets are on the same side of the sun, bringing Mars to its closest point to Earth.
