2 Million Trajectories Before First Contact: How GPU Simulation Became Robotics' Proving Ground

NVIDIA is bringing receipts to ICRA 2026 - eight accepted papers it says show the sim-to-real gap closing on real hardware. More and more, a robot policy is the output of large-scale GPU simulation, with the heavy compute done long before a gripper touches an object.
