Hugging Face has announced the launch of SimReady Central, a library of simulation-ready 3D assets for robotics and AI simulations, according to Hugging Face. The library aims to reduce the manual work required for developers to build high-fidelity simulations by providing pre-prepared assets with necessary properties such as collision geometry and mass.

SimReady Central Library includes over 2,000 OpenUSD assets, which can be used to build robotic pick-and-place scenarios, AI factory digital twins, and other simulation environments. The library features a variety of infrastructure and equipment assets, including robot arms, grippers, and warehouse equipment.

Equipment manufacturers can contribute to the library by preparing and validating their assets against SimReady requirements. This allows them to reach developers and enable faster testing and simulation of scenarios, accelerating decision-making in industries such as robotics and manufacturing.

SimReady assets are prepared with properties required for simulation workflows, including detailed 3D models, collision geometry, and friction properties. The SimReady Foundation provides specifications, profiles, and validation tools to make these requirements explicit, ensuring that assets meet the necessary standards for simulation use cases.

Developers can use SimReady Central to build simulation environments, populate training environments with objects and obstacles, and evaluate robot behaviors. The library also supports AI-assisted authoring, allowing developers to use frontier models like OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra to build environments using SimReady Central Library.

OEMs can use the SimReady Central submission skill to validate assets against relevant SimReady profiles, package them, and submit them for inclusion in the library. This enables industries to build simulations around their products while managing their own Hugging Face datasets.
