Nvidia, Unitree, Sharpa collaborate on humanoid robot design for real work

Nvidia, Unitree, and Sharpa have partnered to create a humanoid robot reference design named H2+ or Isaac GR00T, aimed at enabling researchers to build, fine-tune, and deploy skills more efficiently. The design supports industry-wide humanoid robotics research by streamlining development workflows including data collection, policy training, and real-world deployment. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang stated during a keynote at the Computex conference in Taipei that data is the hardest problem for agentic systems, robotic systems, and physical AI. Reference designs in robotics serve as blueprints for customization, and Nvidia aims to become a key software and hardware supplier in the growing robotics industry.
