A central challenge in robotics is building policies that generalize beyond the demonstrations they’re trained on. A policy that succeeds in a training scene often fails when object shapes, positions, or lighting change. Generalizing to these new conditions requires the policy to understand the tasks underlying physics, not just mimic the demonstrations. This ability comes from the backbone it’s…

Unlike autonomous driving or industrial robotics, healthcare robotics can’t rely on internet-scale data collection or unlimited real-world experimentation. Every demonstration requires specialized equipment, clinical expertise, and access to patients or laboratory environments. This creates three fundamental challenges for developers. First is the data gap. Training modern robotic policies…

Developers building 3D, design, simulation, robotics, and industrial digital twin applications need ways to bring physical AI capabilities into the tools and services they already use. Many of these workflows already depend on OpenUSD scenes, simulation-ready (SimReady) assets, Blender-based workflows, CAD pipelines, or domain-specific app stacks. The challenge is how to provide applications and…

What if autonomous coding AI agents could push your vision reasoning models above 90% accuracy with almost no manual effort? When adapting vision reasoning models to production video tasks, developers often lose days to data formatting, container setup, training scripts, baseline evaluation, and hyperparameter sweeps before they even know whether post-training improves accuracy.

NVIDIA Omniverse NuRec is a neural reconstruction pipeline for building high-fidelity 3D representations of real-world environments from multisensor data such as cameras and lidar. It is used to reconstruct dynamic scenes captured by autonomous vehicle (AV) and robotics platforms into simulation-ready digital environments that can be rendered, replayed, and analyzed inside NVIDIA Omniverse and…

An increasingly common design pattern for autonomous vehicles (AVs), robotics, and spatial AI systems is bird’s-eye-view (BEV) perception. BEV models project multicamera image features into a shared top-down grid, providing downstream perception and planning modules with a common spatial layout for reasoning about lanes, vehicles, pedestrians, and free space. A key operation in this pipeline…

Physical AI—robots working autonomously alongside people in factories, warehouses, hospitals, and homes—is arriving faster than most expected. Traditional safety which was built for structured environments can not work anymore as the spaces become more unstructured and robots move out of cages. AI-driven safety is the key. Marking a major milestone in the arrival of physical AI…
