👁️ NVIDIA unveiled a ready-to-build humanoid robot NVIDIA and Sharpa have launched the Isaac GR00T Reference Humanoid Robot, an open-source-style reference platform designed to make humanoid AI research much easier. Think of it as the “developer kit” for humanoid robots: body, hands, sensors, AI models, and computing power all bundled into one system. Key specs: • Built on Unitree’s H2 Plus humanoid body with 31 degrees of freedom. • Features ultra-sensitive Sharpa robotic hands with over 1,000 sensing points per fingertip. • Powered by NVIDIA’s Jetson AGX Thor chip, delivering a staggering 2,070 TFLOPS of AI performance. The robot comes preloaded with NVIDIA’s GR00T humanoid AI model and plugs directly into its simulation tools, helping researchers move from virtual training to real-world deployment faster. Shipping begins in October 2026, giving AI labs around the world a standardized humanoid robot platform to build on. @aipost 🏴
