Model Card

NVIDIA Isaac GR00T N1.6 is an open vision-language-action (VLA) model for generalized humanoid robot skills. This cross-embodiment model takes multimodal input, including language and images, to perform manipulation tasks in diverse environments. GR00T N1.6 is trained on a diverse mixture of robot data including bimanual, semi-humanoid and an expansive humanoid dataset, consisting of real captured data, synthetic data generated using the components of NVIDIA Isaac GR00T Blueprint. It is adaptable through post-training for specific embodiments, tasks and environments. The neural network architecture of GR00T N1.6 is a combination of vision-language foundation model and diffusion transformer…

Questions About GR00T-N1.6-3B

How much GPU memory does GR00T-N1.6-3B need?

About 7.9 GB at 16-bit and 2 GB at 4-bit: the weights (3.3B parameters) plus a working margin. A long context needs more.

What is the cheapest GPU to run GR00T-N1.6-3B on?

At 16-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour; at 4-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest on-demand prices the SAVRN Index lists.
