I’m thrilled to announce that we just released GraspGen, a multi-year project we have been cooking at @NVIDIARobotics 🚀 GraspGen: A Diffusion-Based Framework for 6-DOF Grasping Grasping is a foundational challenge in robotics 🤖 — whether for industrial picking or…
If you feel like giving up, you must read this never-before-shared story of the creator of PyTorch and ex-VP at Meta, Soumith Chintala. > from hyderabad public school, but bad at math > goes to a "tier 2" college in India, VIT in Vellore > rejected from all 12 universities for…
Proudest moment of my research career, Neural MP won Best Student Paper at IROS! We built a fast, reactive neural motion planner that works in the real world and ended up being used to be enable incredibly long-horizon manipulation tasks in ManipGen (mihdalal.github.io/manipgen/).…
Incredible news. Neural MP has won the Best Student Paper award at IROS 2025!! Congratulations to @mihdalal & @Jiahui_Yang6709 for leading the project along with @mendonca_rl, youssef, @rsalakhu. Neural MP is a major step in making motion planning end-to-end, fast & reactive.
This deserves more attention! A real-world benchmark with 30 tasks across 4 robotic platforms, designed to evaluate VLA models. Each task includes 1,000 demos for finetuning. VLAs still have a long way to go. 🤖📊
(1/N)🚨How well does embodied intelligence perform in the real physical world? We are thrilled to introduce RoboChallenge co-initiated by @Dexmal_AI and @huggingface : the first large scale real-robot-based benchmark platform of embodied intelligence.

Checkout Jun Yamada's latest work on learning Value Functions for MPC! 💡Key Idea: End-to-end policies (e.g. VLA, Transformer, Diffusion Policy, etc.) do not explicitly reason about robot and world physics (dynamics, collision constraints) when generating motions. Instead, by…
How can a closed-loop policy safely and robustly grasp novel objects in cluttered environments? We introduce Grasp-MPC: a hybrid of model-based control and data-driven approaches for generalisable and safe 6DoF closed-loop grasping. 🧵👇 (1/N)
The wait is over. 🥁 NVIDIA Isaac Sim 5.0 and Isaac Lab 2.2 are now generally available. Dive in and start to simulate, train, and validate your AI-powered robots with these new key features: ⚡ Instant GPU access via NVIDIA Brev 🤖 3D #GaussianSplatting with @NVIDIAOmniverse…
Bring DARPA Robotics Challenge back? Nothing forces systems research like a real robot competition
⚠️ Due to an overwhelming number of requests, #CoRL2025 registration is temporarily closed. One presenter per accepted paper will be guaranteed registration, and registration will reopen at a later date.
𝗣𝗼𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗻: "𝗝𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮." After working with many 𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗼𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗽𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 teams who've fallen into the simulation trap, here's what I've learned: Simulation teaches your robot to be really,…
Got back last night from the World AI Conference in Shanghai. Megathread with photos/videos/thoughts from the conf itself + giant expo next door (ended up going back to the expo 3 times bc there were so many interesting booths) First up: robots robots robots (yes, inc Unitree)
Modern AI is confined to the digital world. At Skild AI, we are building towards AGI for the real world, unconstrained by robot type or task — a single, omni-bodied brain. Today, we are sharing our journey, starting with early milestones, with more to come in the weeks ahead.…
Introducing Lume, the robotic lamp. The first robot designed to fit naturally into your home and help with chores, starting with laundry folding. If you’re looking for help and want to avoid the privacy and safety concerns of humanoids in your home, pre-order now.
NVIDIA AI Releases GraspGen: A Diffusion-Based Framework for 6-DOF Grasping in Robotics NVIDIA GraspGen is an advanced diffusion-based framework designed for 6-DOF robotic grasping. By harnessing a vast simulation-generated dataset of 53 million grasps across more than 8,000…
