Isaac Lab: A GPU-Accelerated Simulation Framework for Multi-Modal Robot Learning
NVIDIA, :, Mayank Mittal +104
We present Isaac Lab, the natural successor to Isaac Gym, which extends the paradigm of GPU-native robotics simulation into the era of large-scale multi-modal learning. Isaac Lab c…
Refinery: Active Fine-tuning and Deployment-time Optimization for Contact-Rich Policies
Bingjie Tang, Iretiayo Akinola, Jie Xu +6
Simulation-based learning has enabled policies for precise, contact-rich tasks (e.g., robotic assembly) to reach high success rates (~80%) under high levels of observation noise an…
MatchMaker: Automated Asset Generation for Robotic Assembly
Yian Wang, Bingjie Tang, Chuang Gan +4
Robotic assembly remains a significant challenge due to complexities in visual perception, functional grasping, contact-rich manipulation, and performing high-precision tasks. Simu…
SRSA: Skill Retrieval and Adaptation for Robotic Assembly Tasks
Yijie Guo, Bingjie Tang, Iretiayo Akinola +3
Enabling robots to learn novel tasks in a data-efficient manner is a long-standing challenge. Common strategies involve carefully leveraging prior experiences, especially transitio…
FORGE: Force-Guided Exploration for Robust Contact-Rich Manipulation under Uncertainty
Michael Noseworthy, Bingjie Tang, Bowen Wen +7
We present FORGE, a method for sim-to-real transfer of force-aware manipulation policies in the presence of significant pose uncertainty. During simulation-based policy learning, F…
