NVIDIA adds open AI and simulation tools for robot learning, humanoid development [Video]

NVIDIA Corp. today announced new artificial intelligence and simulation tools to accelerate development of robots including humanoids. Also at the Conference for Robotic Learning, Hugging Face Inc. and NVIDIA said they are combining their open-source AI and robotics efforts to accelerate research and development.

The tools include the generally available NVIDIA Isaac Lab robot learning framework and six new robot learning workflows for the Project GR00T initiative to accelerate humanoid development. They also include new world-model development tools for video data curation and processing, including the NVIDIA Cosmos tokenizer and NVIDIA NeMo Curator for video processing.

Hugging Face said its LeRobot open AI platform combined with NVIDIA AI, Omniverse and Isaac robotics technology will enable advances across industries including manufacturing, healthcare, and logistics.
