NVIDIA introduces GR00T 2, with code planned for December 2026
NVIDIA introduced the robotics model on November 9. Its research page schedules code for December 2026; a complete downloadable package is not established.
NVIDIA’s November 9, 2026 CoRL announcement introduces GR00T 2. The research page describes joint prediction of future video and robot actions for manipulation tasks such as grasping and assembly. This is research and development news.
The research page schedules code for December 2026 without an exact date. We have not verified downloadable model weights, final licensing or commercial terms. Isaac Lab 3.0 is separate: its official release page shows October 20, so it should not be described as first released on November 9.
Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan eligibility, Traditional or Simplified Chinese and Cantonese instruction support, and total hardware and compute costs remain unverified. No standalone web, iOS or Android consumer service was confirmed. Calling the model open does not establish zero total cost.
We did not install software, run the model or test a robot. Vendor demonstrations do not establish reproducible deployment results or certify hardware safety. Safety note: experienced personnel should separately assess collision, pinch and other risks to people and equipment before hardware testing.
