NVIDIA announces Isaac Sim updates at CES
Source: NVIDIA blog post. Simulated warehouse. NVIDIA has updated Isaac Sim , its robotics simulation tool to build and test virtual robots in realistic environments across different operating conditions. The news was announced at CES . A lack of adequate training data had previously hindered robotics deployments. Isaac Sim taps into Isaac Replicator to enable developers to create massive ground-truth datasets that mimic the physics of real-world environments. Using NVIDIA RTX technology, Isaac Sim can now render physically-accurate data from sensors in real time. This capability minimises the difference between a simulated world and the real world. In the case of an RTX-simulated lidar, ray tracing provides more accurate sensor data under various lighting conditions or in response to reflective materials. Isaac Sim ’s new people simulation capability allows human characters to be added to a warehouse or manufacturing facility and tasked with executing familiar behaviour...
