Orbit is a unified and modular framework for robot learning that aims to simplify common workflows in robotics research (such as RL, learning from demonstrations, and motion planning). It is built upon NVIDIA Isaac Sim to leverage the latest simulation capabilities for photo-realistic scenes and fast and accurate simulation.

Please refer to our documentation page to learn more about the installation steps, features, tutorials, and how to set up your project with Orbit.
