NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang announced the release of the latest humanoid robot foundation model — Isaac GR00T N1.5. This release marks an important step forward in NVIDIA's robotics development infrastructure. Huang stated that this model will become "the core building block of the next industrial revolution."
A significant advantage of the GR00T N1.5 model is its greatly improved training efficiency. Traditional humanoid robot models typically require nearly three months to complete data collection, while using the new GR00T-Dreams tool, the time to generate synthetic data can be shortened to just 36 hours. This transformative development helps address the data bottleneck issue in the development process of humanoid robots.
The working principle of GR00T-Dreams is quite ingenious. This tool first fine-tunes a specific robot and, based on the Cosmos Predict world model, can generate demonstration videos for multi-environment tasks from just one image and extract "action tokens" for training. This method of "using AI to generate AI training data" allows robots to learn new behaviors without relying on time-consuming physical testing, significantly improving development efficiency.
In practical tests, the N1.5 model has shown significant improvements in adapting to new environments, workspace configurations, and command recognition. Currently, industry leaders such as Boston Dynamics, Agility Robotics, and Foxconn have integrated into the NVIDIA Isaac platform to fully leverage this new technology. To support development needs, NVIDIA also simultaneously released the Cosmos Reason world model and the Isaac Sim5.0 open-source simulation tool, and collaborated with companies like Cisco and Dell to launch the RTX PRO6000 workstation.
NVIDIA's series of innovative measures not only opens up new paths for the development of humanoid robot technology but also lays a solid foundation for future industrial revolutions.
