Latest update (11-09 14:09): NVIDIA shows how Holoscan 5 makes a robot arm feel weightless

Overview: NVIDIA's technical blog describes a gravity-compensation control loop that lets a robot arm be guided by hand, with motors supplying only enough torque to support the arm's weight. The blog says the loop depends on continuously calculating inverse dynamics, which it describes as the basis for robots that learn by demonstration or work alongside people. The post is a first-party technical explanation; it reports no independent testing or performance figures.
