EVL undergraduate researcher Athena Angara discussed her summer internship project with Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF), “Tele-robotics to Tele-autonomous Robotics for Isotope Production,” during NVIDIA’s weekly livestream, Community Spotlight: Unlocking Physical AI with Isaac Sim and OpenUSD.

Angara is a senior studying data science. She spent her summer at the ALCF working on a DOE-funded project that leveraged virtual reality and augmented reality to create digital twins of critical components of robotic arms. Using Unreal Engine 5 and NVIDIA’s Unity, Omniverse, and Isaac Sim, Angara developed an immersive display system with real-time, low latency, and high spatial resolution for remote control processes. She also converted data to ensure accurate representations between these digital platforms.

NVIDIA’s Omniverse is a real-time 3D graphics collaboration platform. It has been used for applications in the visual effects and “digital twin” industrial simulation industries. Omniverse makes extensive use of the Universal Scene Description format.
