Reality check

A demo shows what may be possible. These points help judge whether the product fits day-to-day use.

Works well when
  • Simulation, control, perception and repeatable experiments
  • Teams that can manage dependencies and hardware interfaces
  • Prototyping before committing to a physical deployment
What to check
  • Supported hardware, GPU requirements and version compatibility
  • Documentation, examples and community response
  • How simulation results transfer to the real robot
Not a magic solution
  • A guarantee that simulation equals a production cell
  • A replacement for safety validation on hardware
  • A low-maintenance toolchain without version ownership
