## What it is
robot_lab is a reinforcement learning extension library for robots built on top of NVIDIA IsaacLab, providing preconfigured locomotion environments for quadrupeds, wheeled-legged, and humanoid robots. It lets researchers develop and train RL policies in an isolated environment outside the core Isaac Lab repository.

## Use cases
- train RL locomotion policies for quadruped robots like Unitree Go2
- simulate legged robots in Isaac Sim with IsaacLab
- develop custom robot RL environments outside the IsaacLab core repo
- train velocity-tracking rough terrain policies for ANYmal or Unitree robots
- learn wheeled-legged robot control with reinforcement learning
- experiment with humanoid robot RL training

## When to choose
- you already use IsaacLab/Isaac Sim and want ready-made robot RL environments
- you need to train locomotion policies for popular quadruped models
- you want an isolated extension environment for custom IsaacLab tasks

## When to avoid
- you need real-robot deployment code without simulation
- you don't have access to NVIDIA Isaac Sim / a suitable GPU
- you want a general-purpose RL library unrelated to robotics

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: reinforcement-learning, simulation, machine-learning, robotics
- domain: robotics, reinforcement-learning, simulation, machine-learning
- platform: windows, python
- tags: isaac-lab, isaac-sim, quadruped-robots, legged-locomotion, sim-to-real, robot-learning, linux, gpu
