BERLIN - Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) announced an expansion of its Isaac robotics development platform today at GTC Berlin, adding new tools and a reference humanoid robot designed to accelerate development of general-purpose robots.
The company introduced Agile ONE SN, a humanoid reference platform developed by Agile Robots that integrates Nvidia’s Isaac GR00T and Jetson Thor technologies. The robot stands 1.40 meters tall, weighs 40 kilograms, and features 31 degrees of freedom with a 3-kilogram payload capacity per arm. It includes dual five-finger hands with 20 degrees of freedom each and multimodal sensing capabilities including cameras, lidar sensors and inertial measurement units.
Agile ONE SN is powered by Nvidia Jetson Thor, which delivers 2,070 FP4 teraflops of compute and 128GB of unified memory. The platform is scheduled to become available in early 2027, according to a press release statement.
Nvidia also released Isaac Lab 3.0, an open source learning framework for training robot policies using multi-GPU workflows. The platform now includes Isaac OS, a runtime framework built on Nvidia Holoscan for connecting AI, sensors, controls and robot hardware.
The company announced the SimReady Central Library on Hugging Face, offering more than 2,000 simulation-ready robotics and factory assets. A Human 1M Dataset containing human activities, synchronized video and 3D hand tracking is available to Cosmos Coalition partners.
European robotics companies are integrating the platform into their systems. ABB Robotics is incorporating Nvidia Omniverse libraries with its RobotStudio HyperReality for robotic system simulation. KUKA Group is using Omniverse libraries in its Visual Components FactoryLens for factory simulation workflows.
Nvidia also introduced Halos, a safety platform built on Nvidia IGX Thor for autonomous vehicles and robots. Partners including Agile Robots, Agility, Dexory, FORT Robotics and KION are integrating Halos within their safety architectures.
