We talked to Ritvik Singh about how you can train sim-to-real dexterous manipulation policies using NVIDIA Isaac. This robot is grasping objects using pure RGB stereo: take in images from a camera pair and predict what to do, all without training in the real world.

DexNDM — a neural dynamics model for dexterous hands Galbot, Tsinghua University and Shanghai Qizhi Institute released DexNDM, a neuromuscular-style dynamics model for dexterous hands. The team reports it reduces reliance on large sets of flawless demonstrations: using biased real-world data, DexNDM bridges Sim→Real for in-hand rotations across arbitrary poses and axes, handling slender, tiny, and irregular objects. Developers say the method is moving from lab validation toward production-ready workflows.

Robot AI brains, aka Vision-Language-Action models, cannot adapt to new tasks as easily as LLMs like Gemini, ChatGPT, or Grok. LLMs can adapt quickly with their in-context learning (ICL) capabilities. But can we inject ICL abilities into a pre-trained VLA like pi0? Yes! Introducing RICL (Retraining for In-Context Learning), our Conference on Robot Learning (CoRL) 2025 paper. Our RICL-pi0 model can adapt to unseen objects, novel motions, and new scenes with just ICL and RAG (retrieval-augmented generation). RICL-pi0 also boosts performance on the long-tail of tasks. A quick 1 minute video summary:

📢 Announcing one of the most exciting works from us this year on **scalable robot policy evaluation through real-to-sim transfer**, moving toward a scalable evaluation engine with structured world models that capture the appearance, geometry, and dynamics of environments involving deformable objects. 🤖 Evaluation remains one of the biggest bottlenecks in building general-purpose robots. Today, robots are still evaluated only in the real world, which is **orders of magnitude slower** than the development of language agents. We propose a new framework where simulation performance **strongly correlates** with the real world (r > 0.9), even for deformable objects. The key difference from existing work lies in the correlation between simulation and reality: if a robot model performs better in the digital world, does it also perform better in the real world? This question has long made people hesitant about simulation-based evaluation — especially for deformable objects. We are changing that. Our pipeline achieves effective real-to-sim transfer, establishing **state-of-the-art correlation** between simulation and reality for deformable object manipulation. It provides a **scalable and reproducible evaluation engine** for robot learning. 🌐

Most of today's AI can see the world, but it doesn’t **feel** it. Capturing the sense of touch is crucial for dexterous robotic manipulation, user modeling, and understanding physical interactions. Introducing OpenTouch: bringing full-hand tactile sensing into real-world AI🖐️ OpenTouch is collected in-the-wild using tactile sensing gloves, hand pose tracking gloves, and egocentric glasses. It includes: • 5 hours of real-world data, • 3 hours densely annotated contact-rich interactions, • 2,900 curated interaction clips, • across 800 objects, 14 environments, and 29 grasp types. all open at:

Thrilled to share one of my favorite works this year: DexNDM! We bridge the Sim2Real gap for dexterous in-hand rotation, achieving a true "0-to-1" advancement. The key? DexNDM learns from biased, real-world data without needing any successful demonstrations. Now a general-purpose dexterous hand can stably rotate large books, long rods, & complex objects around any axis, from any wrist pose. This powerful primitive enables complex, long-horizon tasks like teleoperated screwing and furniture assembly. 📄 Paper: 🌐 Project Page:

We RL'ed humanoid robots to Cristiano Ronaldo, LeBron James, and Kobe Byrant! These are neural nets running on real hardware at our GEAR lab. Most robot demos you see online speed videos up. We actually *slow them down* so you can enjoy the fluid motions. I'm excited to announce "ASAP", a "real2sim2real" model that masters extremely smooth and dynamic motions for humanoid whole body control. We pretrain the robot in simulation first, but there is a notorious "sim2real" gap: it's very difficult for hand-engineered physics equations to match real world dynamics. Our fix is simple: just deploy a pretrained policy on real hardware, collect data, and replay the motion in sim. The replay will obviously have many errors, but that gives a rich signal to compensate for the physics discrepancy. Use another neural net to learn the delta. Basically, we "patch up" a traditional physics engine, so that the robot can experience almost the real world at scale in GPUs. The future is hybrid simulation: combine the power of classical sim engines refined over decades and the uncanny ability of modern NNs to capture a messy world.

Excited to announce Tau Robotics (Tau Robotics). We are building a general AI for robots. We start by building millions of robot arms that learn in the real world. In the video, two robot arms are fully autonomous and controlled by a single neural network conditioned on different language instructions (four axes and five axes robot arms). The other two arms are teleoperated. The entire hardware cost in the video is about $1400. The video is at 1.5x speed.
