Nvidia introduced GR00T 2, an open robot model, and Isaac Lab 3.0 at the Conference on Robot Learning. The company says GR00T 2 achieved 71% average success across 50 tasks with one demonstration per task, rising to 95% with five.

Isaac Lab 3.0 integrates the Newton physics engine to simulate cables, cloth and complex robotic hands. Nvidia reports up to 2.5x the training throughput of Isaac Lab 2.3 with PhysX in a vision-based manipulation benchmark. Foxconn is applying GR00T 2 to server manufacturing automation, while Siemens is evaluating industrial uses. Those applications do not establish that the benchmark results generalize across factory conditions.
