9.10. Isaac Orbit

9.10.1. Overview

Orbit is a framework for robot learning built on top of Isaac Sim that provides a modular design to easily and efficiently create robot learning environments, while leveraging the latest simulation capabilities.

Some of its core features include:

• Modular configuration-driven system to easily create and modify environments

• Suite of robot learning environments for training and evaluation

• Support for different reinforcement learning and imitation learning libraries

• Connection to peripheral devices, such as game-pads and keyboards, for collecting demonstrations

• Ability to augment simulation with custom actuator models for sim-to-real transfer
