Right now, [Sergii]’s simulator is an interactive physics model than runs in the browser. Software-wise, once the model of the robot exists the Rapier JavaScript physics engine takes care of the ...

Nvidia has announced updates to its robotics simulation tools which will enable organizations to build and test virtual robots in a variety of realistic environments and operation conditions ...

That includes lidar simulation with ray tracing to better simulate different lighting conditions and the impact of reflective materials. Different existing robots and warehouse parts can also be ...

What makes this four-legged robot special is that it learned to do all this by itself, without being shown what to do in a computer simulation. Danijar Hafner and colleagues at the University of ...

On Thursday, a large group of university and private industry researchers unveiled Genesis, a new open source computer simulation system that lets robots practice tasks in simulated reality ...

The new framework is intended to enables a new era of industrial AI and robot simulation for factories and warehouses, through software-defined testing and optimization, the company said.

Reinforcement learning at scale is facilitated through an application built on the company's Isaac Sim robotics simulation platform, while training and inference workflows can be coordinated and ...

Simulation programs can help robots learn how to interact with places and objects, but the results still tend to fall prey to what’s known as the “sim-to-real gap,” or failures that arise ...

The researchers built up a virtual world (simulation) that contained two robot arms equipped with tactile sensors. They then design reward functions and a goal-update mechanism that could ...

Predicting exactly how the cargo bags will deform when the robot grasps them and interact with them can be very difficult. "We set out to find a way to control this and built a simulation ...
