10 Technologies for Autonomous Vehicle, Robotics Developers From NVIDIA’s GTC 2021

The latest Isaac release also includes support for the Robot Operating System (ROS) developer community.

NVIDIA has released six new Isaac GEMs, hardware-accelerated software packages that make it easier for ROS developers to build high-performance AI-enabled robots on the Jetson platform.

A common accident in warehouses and factories is that while an autonomous mobile robot (AMR) may “see” a forklift, it may still collide with its tines, noted the company.

The new Omniverse Replicator for Isaac Sim can train a dynamic neural network (DNN) Inference Isaac ROS GEM to safely and accurately recognize a forklift to avoid mishaps. This process allows developers to quickly add inference to ROS-based applications like the AMR use case described above.
