  • Nvidia, Unitree, and Sharpa have a new robotics deal
  • The companies will produce a cutting-edge humanoid robot blueprint
  • These robots are going to be better equipped for 'real work'

There are some very impressive humanoid robot demos out there, but questions remain about just how capable these bots are at tackling real work, without supervision — questions that Nvidia, Unitree, and Sharpa are looking to answer with a new partnership.

The collaboration was announced by Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang at Computex 2026 (via the South China Morning Post), and will lead to a 'reference design' called H2+ or Isaac GR00T: essentially, a blueprint that manufacturers can follow that covers every aspect of development, from data collection to real-world deployment.

Nvidia will be supplying the AI data that means robots will be able to reason and act in useful ways (the brains of the operation). "For agentic systems, robotic...
