### Keynote: Accelerating the Path to Generalist Humanoid Robots

For researchers advancing the field of robot learning, generalization, and adaptive control, the emergence of highly capable humanoid platforms represents profound new opportunities, as well as unique challenges. NVIDIA is building the Isaac™ GR00T open platform for developing humanoid robots to meet these opportunities.

Isaac GR00T consists of four parts: robot foundation models for cognition and control, simulation frameworks built on NVIDIA Omniverse™ and Cosmos™, data pipelines for generating synthetic data and environments, and the NVIDIA® Jetson AGX Thor™ supercomputer. This talk will introduce our latest research progress on building the Isaac GR00T foundation models and present new updates with the platform.
