What problem does it solve?

This skill simplifies the process of bringing external 3D assets, including robots and environments, into an Isaac Sim scene, streamlining scene setup and asset integration.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Import USD/URDF: Load robot and asset models from local files or Nucleus.
  • Reference USD: Attach USD files as references to existing prims.
  • Verify and Position: Check import success, inspect hierarchy, and set transformations.
  • Use Case: Quickly add a Franka Panda robot from Nucleus or a custom URDF robot from your local drive into your simulation environment.

Quick Start

Import the Franka Panda robot from Nucleus to the /World/Franka prim path.

FAQPage Schema
How do I import a URDF robot into Isaac Sim?▼

You can import a URDF robot into Isaac Sim by loading the model from a local file path or Nucleus server, then verifying the imported prims and inspecting the scene hierarchy to ensure correct asset integration.

Can I reference USD files as attachments to existing prims in an Isaac Sim scene?▼

Yes, you can attach USD files as references to existing prims in an Isaac Sim scene. This allows you to integrate external 3D assets while maintaining the existing scene hierarchy and structure.

Does Isaac Sim support importing 3D assets from local drives and Nucleus servers?▼

Isaac Sim supports importing 3D assets from both local file paths and Nucleus servers. You can load robots and environments in USD or URDF formats from either source into your simulation scene.

What is the best way to verify and position imported robots in Isaac Sim?▼

The best way to verify and position imported robots is to check the import success, inspect the scene hierarchy, and apply transformations. This ensures correct positioning and scaling of the loaded USD or URDF models.

How do I add a Franka Panda robot from Nucleus to an Isaac Sim scene?▼

You add a Franka Panda robot from Nucleus by importing the USD asset into a specified prim path, such as /World/Franka. The skill handles loading from the server and verifying the imported prims in the scene.
