NVIDIA unveils GR00T 2 world action model and Isaac Lab 3.0 at CoRL

NVIDIA introduced GR00T 2, an open world action model built on Cosmos and trained on 100,000 hours of human egocentric data, alongside Isaac Lab 3.0 and new robotics benchmarks at CoRL. GR00T 2 completed 40 of 50 evaluated tasks at least once without task-specific demonstrations and reached 71% average success across 50 tasks with one demonstration each, rising to 95% with five. Isaac Lab 3.0 adds Newton physics integration for deformable objects and reports up to 2.5x the training throughput of Isaac Lab 2.3 with PhysX in a vision-based dexterous manipulation benchmark.
