How Nvidia powers The Sphere’s visual spectacle in Las Vegas


The Sphere is an amazing entertainment experience in Las Vegas where you can see eye-popping visuals watching a 16K immersive screen.

It has LED displays that cover nearly 750,000 square feet inside and outside the venue, and it is powered behind the scenes by around 150 Nvidia RTX A6000 graphics processing units (GPUs). The content is then streamed in real time to rack-mounted workstations equipped with Nvidia RTX A6000 GPUs, achieving unprecedented performance capable of delivering three layers of 16K resolution at 60 frames per second. “The integration of Nvidia RTX GPUs, BlueField DPUs and Rivermax software creates a powerful trifecta of advantages for modern accelerated computing, supporting the unique high-resolution video streams and strict timing requirements needed at Sphere and setting a new standard for media processing capabilities,” said Nir Nitzani, senior product director for networking software at Nvidia, in a statement.
