Make a Robot Arm Feel Weightless with NVIDIA Holoscan 5

AI summary A new NVIDIA tutorial explains how Holoscan 5 can run a gravity-compensation control loop on Seeed Studio's reBot Arm B601-DM, so the arm supports its own weight while someone guides it by hand. Together, three custom operators read joint state at 400 Hz, work out torques with the Pinocchio inverse-dynamics solver and pass commands via the motorbridge library. Nsight Systems profiling showed that giving the control partition its own CPU core lowered p99.99 latency roughly 9.6-fold in Python and roughly 5-fold in C++. The example has been checked on Jetson Thor, Jetson Orin Nano and x86 machines with Ubuntu 24.04.
