Project GR00T:
AI chip leader Nvidia announced Project GR00T which promises to revolutionise the evolution of humanoid robots.
- Project GR00T stands for Generalist Robot 00 Technology.
- It is a multimodal AI system that acts as the mind for humanoid robots, allowing them to learn new skills and interact with the real world.
- Robots built on this platform are designed to understand natural language and emulate movements by observing human actions, such as instantly learning coordination, dexterity, and other skills.
- The project aims to empower humanoid robots with human-like understanding and movement using Artificial Intelligence (AI).
- The humanoids learn from human demonstrations with imitation learning and from the robotics platform NVIDIA Isaac Lab for reinforcement learning.
- While imitation learning involves observing an expert performing a task and learning to imitate those actions, reinforcement learning is a machine learning method that trains software to make decisions to achieve the most optimal results.
