Isaac GR00T

NVIDIA's Isaac GR00T is a research initiative and development platform that delivers robot foundation models, simulation frameworks built on NVIDIA Omniverse and Cosmos, and data pipelines—including the GR00T‑Mimic and GR00T‑Dreams blueprints—to accelerate humanoid robotics research and development. Targeted at humanoid developers for use cases like material handling, packaging, and inspection, GR00T provides open multimodal foundation models for cognition and control trained on a large humanoid dataset (real captured data, synthetic data, and internet‑scale video), adaptable via post‑training, runnable on Jetson AGX Thor, and designed to generalize across grasping, one- and two‑arm manipulation, transfers, and multi‑step long‑context tasks.
