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:
| Component | Requirement |
|---|---|
| CPU | x86_64 |
| GPU | NVIDIA RTX |
| RAM | 16 GB |
| VRAM | 4 GB (12 GB for all workflows) |
| Disk Space | 32 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.
Declared platform policy: linux/amd64+nvidia-rtx. This is a source support
declaration, not runtime acceptance evidence. Linux arm64/aarch64 installer
paths remain source-present but unverified and unsupported until their frozen
install, container, Isaac/GPU, and end-to-end execution gates pass.
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.
| Component | Requirement |
|---|---|
| OS (Native Installation) | Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 |
| OS (Docker Installation) | Linux (X11 required only for GUI workflows) |
| NVIDIA Driver | >=580 |
| Python | 3.12.* |
| Isaac Sim | 6.0 (built from source) |
| Isaac Lab | matched to Isaac Sim 6.0 |
Note: SRB requires Isaac Sim 6.0 built from source via the provided install script — a standard Omniverse-launcher installation is not compatible. The Installation guide handles this step for you.
