[EMEA - Virtual] Advancing Robotics & Computer Vision with Synthetic Data and Simulation | KI Park

🎙️ Meet our speakers:🔹 Petar Tesic & Oliver Petrovic – RWTH Aachen

This presentation explores how NVIDIA Isaac Sim and NVIDIA Omniverse are used at the WZL Aachen to advance robotics and computer vision. Petar and Oliver demonstrate how synthetic data generation with Isaac Replicator enables robust defect detection and pose estimation by leveraging photorealistic rendering and domain randomization, allowing vision models to be trained entirely on synthetic data while achieving reliable sim-to-real transfer.

🔍 Additionally, the talk highlights the integration of Isaac Sim extensions such as Cortex, Isaac Lab, and Isaac Replicator for robot-based, contact-rich assembly tasks. They discuss how policies learned in simulation can be successfully transferred to real-world applications using domain randomization. Finally, insights into testing humanoid robots and robotic hands in simulation are provided, including teleoperation and data augmentation strategies for improving performance in complex manipulation scenarios.
