Agility Robotics, a humanoid robotics developer, has announced an expansion of its partnership with technology company NVIDIA.
This expansion includes increased adoption of NVIDIA’s Isaac Sim and Isaac Lab robot simulation and learning frameworks, designed to enhance Agility’s Digit robot ability to learn and test behaviours.
As part of the ongoing collaboration, Agility Robotics aims to improve its training and testing processes by utilising these advanced simulation tools, which will aid in training Digit using reinforcement learning in virtually simulated environments.

The two companies are also working to make Digit models accessible to partners through “Mega,” an NVIDIA Omniverse Blueprint, a platform aimed at perfecting AI-driven robotics solutions at scale.
Additionally, Agility has gained early access to NVIDIA Cosmos and the Mega NVIDIA Omniverse Blueprint. NVIDIA Cosmos is a platform focused on generative world models, while Mega enables the simulation and optimisation of robot fleets through digital twins.
The technology is already being applied by Agility in collaboration with automotive manufacturing customer Schaeffler, allowing for the representation of assets like bins and shelves in digital form for more efficient training and testing.
Rev Lebaredian, vice president of Omniverse and Simulation Technology at NVIDIA, said: “By leveraging simulation and reinforcement learning, they are developing Physical AI capable of understanding and interacting with the real world – an essential step in advancing Digit’s intelligence.”
Achievements and innovations in retail and e-commerce, healthcare and pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, automotive, transport & logistics, and more will be celebrated at the Robotics & Automation Awards on 29 October 2025 at De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms in London.
