Introduction to Robotics Simulation course

I bought the Introduction to Robotics Simulation course. A few Exercises(for Example: hello_physics ex.2 adding multiple cubes) are not working anymore. I dont know if thats related to updates of Isaac sim. I hope that you can solve that issue because it is quiet frustrating that there are many errors in a course which costs 30 euro.
Best regards

@niklasusa20 i am just another OV user and have no history of purchasing courses. is this a course on the DLI? if you don’t mind, could you provide a link to the course should the mods/devs get around to checking it out?

one thing you could consider doing is to reach out to the official DLI support (NVDLI@nvidia.com) and make sure they are aware the course material isn’t up to date or possibly ask for a refund. i personally haven’t purchased any courses, so i can’t say what your odds are at getting your reimbursements (but wouldn’t hurt to ask).

Hi, I was sent here from nvidia support chat

I just purchased this course and I am getting this error 'Bad Request
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.
Size of a request header field exceeds server limit.

Apache/2.4.41 (Ubuntu) Server at ip-172-28-0-94.us-west-2.compute.internal Port 443’

Please assist! Thanks!

I was able to open the link just before I purchased this (Courses – NVIDIA)

is NVIDIA support chat you referred to the same as the DLI support (see above for their email)? and when are you getting the error? is it after you clicked on the course link or enroll now?

how is the course? is it worth buying it? I want to learn the basics of isaac sim and how to create stuff around it.

It’s not expensive so you don’t have much to lose.

Here’s my take-- I didn’t get that much out of it or from the others I tried. It might just be my learning style-- I don’t get a lot out of tutorials that use jupyter notebooks and have the code already written in cells that you just click through in the cloud. I prefer the follow-along videos where you are actually using your own Isaac Sim installation and getting your hands dirty. If you learn more like I do, I suggest checking out some of the videos from past GTCs. There are some hands-on tutorials related to Omniverse, IsaacSim, and OpenUSD. Siggraph videos are also good. If I knew of a single solid course for robotics I’d send you a link but I haven’t found one yet.

I think the free tutorials cover the course.

I do not use Jupyter so I did not take out much from the course. Maybe this course is good for someone want to use Jupyter notebook but do not know how to start. They do provide a good template for Jupyter Notebook.

As the free tutorial showed (from both official docs and youtube), you can coordinate the robot tasks using task index and create a mechanism to map the target object of your robot with the task index. If you want you can write a state machine to do that.
