  • Project introduction and layout: Overview
  • Installation and operation: Getting started
  • Command entry: ./run.sh in the repository root (no arguments show help)
  • Documentation: Index
Task Command
Simulation only ./run.sh start-isaac
Teaching and recording ./run.sh sim1-session --name my_episode
Convert existing data ./run.sh sim1-process outputs/sessions/my_episode/trace.csv --with-v21

Quick start

git lfs install
git submodule update --init --depth 1
git lfs pull
git submodule foreach git lfs pull
python3 scripts/audit_checkout.py
python3 scripts/prepare_portable_urdf.py
export ISAAC_SIM_ROOT=/path/to/isaac-sim-standalone-5.1.0-linux-x86_64
source scripts/activate_sim1_conda.sh
./run.sh build
./run.sh preflight
./run.sh sim1-session --name my_episode

Install/build prerequisites first: English, 中文, Conda/ROS dependencies. The session starts Play, OCS2, pygame recording and all six camera previews. Press Q in pygame to finalize. Outputs: outputs/sessions/my_episode/. The simulator installation is external; asset and source paths are repository-relative.

Validation status

The full scene and ROS Bridge run. Root USD metadata is Z-up/metres; bridge registration is completed before scene loading. Pygame is the only arm target publisher in a teaching session. Six RGB/depth streams and actual base/joint feedback were recorded. Small-motion OCS2 tracking and local LeRobot v2.1/v3.0 exports were checked; see the measured limits in the report. Depth is retained as lossless auxiliary arrays; the standard video features are three RGB streams. Official LeRobot training-loader integration and physical hardware transfer are not claimed.

The 2026-09-16 core is frozen with file hashes and a source snapshot. Both local export formats passed validation (131 frames, 20 FPS). The last automatic-base command fix was not re-recorded; its verification limit is retained in the report.

Canonical robot source: projects/ros2_ws/src/robot. The ROS URDF uses package URIs; r1_fixed_portable.urdf uses relative mesh paths. A source ZIP or LFS pointer is not a complete geometry asset. Use a hydrated clone. Optional IsaacLab-Arena is not a core dependency. Historical notes remain labelled and indexed; use the current operation guide for commands.

Cross-simulator validation

See the isolated evaluation. OmniSim 8.5.1 requires a fixed-parent compatibility variant; normal ROS/Isaac imports keep the original kinematic description. Fixed gripper-cycle measurements, contact queries, versions and limitations are reported there. Successful import or finger motion is not evidence of a completed object grasp. Measured gripper closing error was 1.803–1.859 mm. A cube/floor control also failed without R1, so object-contact and grasp validation remain unresolved in this build.
