Training and User Documentation

A proposed support structure for safe, consistent and productive use of the lab.

Training should cover both software workflows and safe interaction with immersive and physical systems.

Getting Started

  • Complete the required lab orientation and review the code of conduct.
  • Confirm eligibility, account access and any course or project approval requirements.
  • Review the workstation, server, robotics, VR and data-handling procedures relevant to the planned activity.
  • Use the approved file locations, naming conventions and project backup process.

Software Guides

  • Omniverse and USD Composer: launching the environment, opening approved project files, working with USD assets, and saving changes.
  • Isaac Sim: starting a simulation, adding robots and sensors, running examples, and exporting results.
  • Isaac Lab: setting up training or evaluation workflows, monitoring runs and documenting configurations.
  • Synthetic data: generating RGB, depth, segmentation and other labeled outputs for research or instruction.
  • Server and GPU use: submitting workloads, monitoring resource usage, saving outputs and ending sessions responsibly.

User Manuals 


Robotics and Immersive-System Safety

  • Keep the robotic work area clear and use emergency-stop procedures when required.
  • Do not operate physical robots without the appropriate orientation and supervision.
  • Inspect VR and controller cables, define a safe movement area and use a spotter when an activity requires one.
  • Report equipment problems, unsafe conditions and damaged accessories immediately.

Troubleshooting and Support

The published page should include common startup problems, software reset procedures, known issues and a clear support pathway. Each guide should state the software version to which it applies and the date it was last reviewed.
