Latest update (11-09 09:00): NVIDIA introduces GR00T 2 and open robotics simulation tools at CoRL

Overview: NVIDIA introduces GR00T 2, an open world action model built on Cosmos, along with simulation tools, benchmarks and agentic workflows at CoRL, according to a first-party NVIDIA blog post. NVIDIA says GR00T 2 completed 40 of 50 evaluated tasks at least once without task-specific demonstrations, and reached 71% average success across the 50 tasks with one demonstration per task.

NVIDIA also reports that Isaac Lab 3.0 with Newton reached up to 2.5x the training throughput of Isaac Lab 2.3 with PhysX in one benchmark. The company says teams can run DexBench on Manifold, Bifrost's evaluation platform, with no setup required and free credits for initial evaluations. Genesis AI and mimic robotics are evaluating DexBench through early access, and version 0.4 of its developer preview is arriving at CoRL.
