Unofficial instructions for running headless Isaac Sim and Isaac Lab on Google Colab.
This setup is for demo purposes only, using various hacks to run Isaac Sim on Colab. Serious development is not recommended, as Colab is not officially supported.
Demo¶
Test the demo on Google Colab:
| Isaac Sim Version | Isaac Lab Version | Colab Link | Script |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4.5.0 | - |  |
install-isaac-sim-4.5.sh |
| 4.5.0 | 2.1.0 | |
install-isaac-lab-2.1.0.sh |
Developer Notes¶
Run the following to clean up notebooks before committing:
nb-clean clean --preserve-cell-outputs notebooks/isaac-sim-4.5-colab.ipynb
nb-clean clean --preserve-cell-outputs notebooks/isaac-lab-2.1.0-colab.ipynb
Sometimes Isaac Sim installation fails due to pip install issues. In this case, try deleting the runtime and creating a new one.
