Halos Safety for Humanoids

Safety solution spanning infrastructure, operating system, middleware, and applications.

Agile ONE SN Reference Robot

Frontier humanoid reference platform for robotics research, built on the GR00T reference platform.

Isaac GR00T Reference Workflows

Follow a fully open, validated, and reproducible path from data collection and policy training to evaluation and deployment on physical robots. Use NVIDIA software, your own tools, or a combination of both.

Capture Data

Capture high-quality demonstrations through teleoperation in simulation or on a physical robot, then convert the data for GR00T post-training.

Train and Evaluate Policies

Post-train GR00T models with real or simulated demonstrations, then evaluate the policy in Isaac Lab-Arena before deployment.

Deploy on the Robot

Export the trained policy and deploy on Jetson Thor™ for real-time, on-device inference and control.

Isaac GR00T Family of Models

Start with pre-trained GR00T foundation models for generalized robot skills, then fine-tune and deploy them across embodiments and environments.

Get started with GR00T 1.7

GR00T 1.7 is the latest open VLA model in the GR00T family, with a Cosmos backend and commercial license. The 3-billion-parameter model is available on GitHub and Hugging Face.

Orchestrate with Frontier AI

Use frontier AI models like GPT-6 Astra to decompose complex goals into actionable steps, with GR00T translating those plans into robot actions.

Run GR00T 1.7 on Jetson Thor

Use the Jetson Thor deployment guide for Docker setup and accelerated GR00T 1.7 inference with TensorRT™ NVFP4 quantization at 25 Hz.

Use GR00T on LeRobot

GR00T 1.7 is available on LeRobot, streamlining model training, fine-tuning and deployment across a wide range of robots and tasks.

Frequently Asked Questions

NVIDIA Isaac GR00T is an open reference platform for general-purpose humanoid robots. It brings together open data and pipelines, robot foundation models, simulation frameworks, middleware, accelerated runtime libraries, and Jetson Thor for real-time inference and control.

GR00T models take onboard camera views, a natural-language instruction, and the robot’s current state as input. The policy predicts chunks of continuous robot actions, helping produce coordinated and smooth manipulation behavior.

GR00T models learn from a diverse mixture of internet-scale human video, real robot teleoperation data, and synthetic data generated in simulation. This mix provides world knowledge, physical grounding, and scalable task coverage.

Yes. Developers can post-train GR00T with a focused set of real or synthetic demonstrations for a specific embodiment, task, or environment while retaining broad capabilities learned during pretraining.

GR00T provides a repeatable path from data to deployment: Set up a simulation environment, capture demonstrations, train or post-train a policy, evaluate it in simulation, and deploy it for real-time inference and control with NVIDIA Jetson Thor.
