 **Isaac Lab** is a GPU-accelerated, open-source framework designed to unify and simplify robotics research workflows,
 such as reinforcement learning, imitation learning, and motion planning. Built on [NVIDIA Isaac Sim](https://docs.isaacsim.omniverse.nvidia.com/latest/index.html),
 it combines fast and accurate physics and sensor simulation, making it an ideal choice for sim-to-real
