Python Scripting Concepts

Standalone vs Interactive Python

Python scripting in NVIDIA Isaac Sim can be done in two ways: standalone and interactive. Standalone Python scripts are executed from the command line and are used to automate tasks or run simulations. Interactive Python scripts are executed in the Python console and are used to explore the NVIDIA Isaac Sim API and test code snippets. Both types of scripts can be used to create custom extensions, such as new robot controllers or sensors, and to interact with the Omniverse application.
