Isaac Lab-Arena Hands-on Training Lab, March 18 2026 at GTC San Jose

[sangeetas-nv]

We’re excited to announce a hands‑on training lab at GTC San Jose, March 18, 2026: Scalable Environment Curation and Policy Evaluation with Isaac Lab‑Arena

Join instructors @alexmillane, @AsawareeBhide, @ellontop1, and @sangeetas-nv as we dive in to new features in Isaac Lab-Arena v0.2. You'll learn how to:

• Set up complex long-horizon tasks with ease using Isaac Lab-Arena’s modular LEGO-like environment composition.
• Post‑train VLA models such as NVIDIA Isaac GR00T on Arena tasks.
• Use large‑scale parallel environment rollouts for rapid benchmarking.
• Leverage ready-to-use community benchmarks on the unified Isaac Lab‑Arena core and reuse their LEGO blocks (tasks, scenes, robots, metrics) for custom evaluations.

Isaac Lab‑Arena developers @cvolkcvolk , @xyao-nv, @peterd-NV, and @qianl-nv will be there in person to guide you through the session.

We’ll also share our vision for the future of Isaac Lab‑Arena and discuss your ideas, use cases, and feature requests.

We look forward to seeing the Isaac Lab community there. All training material will be published after the conference, including open-source code, sample tasks, step-by-step documentation, training recording, and a technical blog post.

Hope to code and collaborate with you at GTC San Jose! 🚀
