Nvidia's Project GR00T is built on a general-purpose foundation model.
The company aims to provide a helping hand to developers working on AI-driven robotics.
It will offer developers a comprehensive ecosystem for AI-powered robot development, simulation, and deployment.
At the ongoing GTC conference, Nvidia’s Project GR00T. This is a pretty transformative initiative with which Nvidia plans on developing AI-powered robots. With nothing similar to Marvel’s character, project GR00T or Generalist Robot 00 Technology will introduce a multimodal AI system designed to help the next generation of humanoids with advanced intelligence capabilities. Read along to get to know the whole deal.
How Nvidia’s Project GR00T could improvise AI-powered robots?
Nvidia’s Project GR00T is built on a general-purpose foundation model. This will enable humanoid robots to interpret text, speech, and videos, and even give live demonstrations to execute specific actions autonomously. The project has been developed with Nvidia’s Isaac Robotic Platform tools that also includes the newly launched Isaac Lab for reinforcement learning.
