System Requirements

Hardware Requirements

The hardware requirements for Space Robotics Bench are inherited from the Isaac Sim requirements. With careful tuning, it is possible to run the included environments on lower-spec systems. However, the performance of some workflows might be limited. The bare minimum requirements are listed below:

ComponentRequirement
CPUx86_64
GPUNVIDIA RTX
RAM16 GB
VRAM4 GB
Disk Space32 GB

This project requires a dedicated NVIDIA GPU with RT Cores (RTX series). Isaac Sim does not support GPUs from other vendors (AMD, Intel) or older NVIDIA GPUs without RT Cores.

Software Requirements

A Linux-based OS with an appropriate NVIDIA driver is required to use Space Robotics Bench. Other operating systems might be functional, but they are not officially supported. Please let us know if you confirm functionality on other non-listed systems.

ComponentRequirement
OS (Native Installation)Ubuntu 22.04
OS (Docker Installation)Linux with X11
NVIDIA Driver>=535,<560
