NVIDIA VRWorks™ introduction
VRWorks™ is a comprehensive suite of APIs, libraries, and engines that enable application and headset developers to create amazing virtual reality experiences.
VRWorks enables a new level of presence by bringing physically realistic visuals, sound, touch interactions, and simulated environments to virtual reality.
Key components of VRWorks are being adopted by industry leading graphics engines such as Unreal Engine 4 and Unity 5 to provide developers an easy path to taking advantage of the SDK in their games and applications.
In addition, VRWorks includes SDKs that accelerate 360 video capture and processing as well as enhance professional VR environments like CAVES, Immersive Displays & Cluster Solutions.

NVIDIA Optimus introduction
As the notebook industry continues to grow, consumers are trying to find the best compromise between battery life and performance. With the increasing popularity of HD media, gaming, and GPU powered applications, the number of GPUs included in notebooks continues to increase.
While integrated graphics has historically delivered good battery life, it has failed to deliver the graphics and GPU performance end users demand. As a result, a few years ago NVIDIA developed a technology dubbed “switchable graphics” which allowed the end-user to choose which display adaptor would be used. In essence, this technology brought the best of both worlds, as it offered the battery life of an integrated graphics solution and the performance of a discrete GPU. Unfortunately, there were limitations to the technology resulting in the end user having to execute a fairly involved procedure to harness the most from the platform, resulting in only 1% of users ever switching between the two graphics systems.
With NVIDIA's new Optimus technology, users can now experience the full performance benefits of a discrete GPU with the battery life of an integrated graphics solution. NVIDIA Optimus automatically, instantaneously, and seamlessly optimizes the notebook to offer the best performance or best battery life depending on the application.

NVIDIA Advanced Optimus introduction
NVIDIA Advanced Optimus is an evolution of NVIDIA Optimus. NVIDIA Advanced Optimus improves upon the original by introducing a hardware-based dynamic display switch (DDS) that allows GeForce GPUs to directly control the display, rather than routing via the IGP. Bypassing integrated graphics increases game performance, reduces system latency when gaming, and enables the use of G-SYNC variable refresh rate displays, improving users' experiences.
Enable Dynamic Display Switch (DDS)
Before enable DDS, please launch Armory Crate application to modify [GPU Power Saving] to [Standard] mode.
Then In NVIDIA Control Panel, please reach [Manage Display mode] in [3D Settings], and apply [Automatic Select] in [Display Mode] for Dynamic Display Switch enable.
Notice: When Armoury Crate application [GPU Power Saving] is under [Eco Mode] or [Ultimate] mode, it is unable to launch [Automatic Select] under Manage Display Mode or launch NVIDIA Control Panel.
Disable Dynamic Display Switch (DDS)
In NVIDIA Control Panel, once reach [Manage Display mode] in [3D Settings] and apply [Optimus] mode, the Dynamic Display Switch will be disable.
