Deploying Policies from Isaac Lab to Isaac Sim

Add to your calendar: https://www.addevent.com/event/cA2626... In this NVIDIA OpenUSD Insiders livestream featuring Sanjuna Mathews, developers will learn how to train a robot using reinforcement learning in Isaac Lab and export the resulting policy for deployment. The session will demonstrate the full deployment pipeline within Isaac Sim. Toward the end, there will be a brief walkthrough of how the deployed policy interfaces with ROS 2 topics for observation and action exchange providing a foundation for sim-to-real transfer.
