    NVIDIA launches GR00T 2 world action model and Isaac Lab 3.0 at CoRL

    NVIDIA launched the open world action model GR00T 2 and the open-source robot learning framework Isaac Lab 3.0 at CoRL. GR00T 2 was trained on 100,000 hours of NVIDIA open-source first-person data; with only one demonstration per task, it reached an average success rate of 71% across 50 tasks, rising to 95% with five demonstrations, and without task-specific demonstrations it completed at least once each of 40 of the 50 tasks.

    Why it matters: GR00T 2's few-shot success rates and Isaac Lab 3.0's training throughput gains provide the current baseline for embodied models and the simulation training stack.

    NVIDIA releases GR00T 2 series world-action models, trained on 400,000 hours of human video

    At CoRL 2026, NVIDIA launched the open-source world-action model series GR00T 2, comprising two versions, GR00T 2 and GR00T 2 Turbo. The former focuses on generalization and fine manipulation, while the latter has fewer parameters and can be deployed directly on the Unitree G1, with a single inference taking 124 milliseconds on the onboard Jetson Thor.

    Why it matters: NVIDIA released the GR00T 2 series at CoRL 2026 and disclosed the scale of three types of pre-training data along with success rates for cross-embodiment transfer and few-shot adaptation, which can be used to assess the current capability boundaries of world-action models.

    NVIDIA releases VFlash visual planning decoding framework, robot action decoding up to 12x faster

    NVIDIA has released VFlash, a general-purpose decoding framework for fast visual planning that replaces token-by-token coordinate generation with parallel decoding of complete visual primitives, allowing it to predict robot grasp positions and motion trajectories in one pass. At batch size 1 on H100, single-generation speed improved by about 25x; across four MolmoSpaces tasks, the world action model averaged a 70.2% success rate versus a 62.6% baseline. Jim Fan shared that it achieves up to 12x faster action decoding, 5.1x overall robot inference speedup, and up to 61% lower 3D trajectory error.

    Why it matters: NVIDIA's new decoding framework changes visual planning from token-by-token generation to parallel prediction, and provides speedup and success-rate comparisons across multiple robot and autonomous-driving benchmarks.

    NVIDIA Cosmos Expands with New Tools for Training, Evaluating and Deploying World Models

    NVIDIA has expanded the Cosmos platform with new training tools, simulation checkpoints and Cosmos Data Factory blueprints for training, evaluating and deploying world models.

    Why it matters: The original lists Cosmos's new training tools, simulation checkpoints and data blueprints, and gives specific data on users such as Porsche and ANYbotics, which can be used to assess changes in the world model development workflow.

    NVIDIA open-sources robot data engine Flora, labeling cost about 1/125 that of GPT-6 Astra

    NVIDIA released and open-sourced the data engine Flora, which converts raw robot video into training data such as timestamped action descriptions, process rewards, and outcome rewards; it is already used to train the GR00T series models. Flora consists of an action description model, a temporal segmentation model, and a reward model, fine-tuned from the Qwen3.5 series of vision-language models, and can label 200,000 hours of data per day on 512 GB300 GPUs.

    Why it matters: NVIDIA's open-source data engine cuts robot video labeling costs to about 1/125 of a general-purpose large model and provides several benchmark comparisons, which can be used to assess the substitution space in the data labeling segment.

    Skild AI releases robot foundation model S1, achieving in-context learning through video demonstrations

    Skild AI released the robot foundation model S1, which uses video demonstrations as task prompts and can execute manipulation tasks not seen during training without fine-tuning, with long-horizon tasks lasting up to about 10 minutes. At a pretraining data scale of 100,000 hours, the ICL model achieved a 66% success rate on unseen tasks, compared with 9% for the language-prompted VLA; a single demonstration was equivalent to about 380 post-training demonstrations, and the planting task took 11 minutes from recording the demonstration to autonomous execution. S1 was trained on NVIDIA AI infrastructure and has already been put into use with commercial partners.

    Why it matters: The original article provides comparison figures for ICL and VLA at the same data scale and a deployment timeline, allowing readers to assess the feasibility of the in-context learning approach for manipulation tasks.
