Cosmos Transfer 1 Inference Synthetic manipulation motion generation for humanoid robots

Isaac GR00T-Mimic is a reference workflow for creating large-scale synthetic motion trajectories for robot manipulation from minimal human demonstrations. Built on NVIDIA Omniverse™ and Cosmos Transfer 1, this blueprint addresses the challenge of limited real-world data by generating physically accurate synthetic demonstrations.

Key Features

  • Data Amplification: Generate exponentially large amounts of trajectories from small demonstration sets
  • Physical Accuracy: Leverage simulation for physically plausible motion generation
  • Cost-Effective: Reduce expensive and time-consuming real-world data collection
  • Generalization: Provide diversity needed for robust robot learning models

How It Works

  1. Human Demonstrations: Start with a small number of human manipulation demonstrations
  2. Simulation: Use Isaac Sim and Omniverse for physically accurate environment simulation
  3. Motion Synthesis: Apply Cosmos Transfer 1 to generate diverse manipulation trajectories
  4. Policy Training: Train imitation learning models on the synthetic dataset

Applications

  • Humanoid robot manipulation tasks
  • Object grasping and placement
  • Tool use and manipulation
  • Dexterous hand control
