Description
REVEL and NVIDIA are hosting the world's largest Physical AI hackathon with over $100K in prizes, including GPUs, dev kits, and a full humanoid robot. The multi-month event, running from December 15, 2025, to the end of February 2026, is structured to attract talent from all corners of the robotics world. With Pro, Amateur, and Junior tracks, everyone from seasoned industry teams to high school clubs can compete. The entire competition is built on NVIDIA’s formidable robotics stack, with challenges designed to be tackled first in NVIDIA Isaac Sim, a simulation platform built on Omniverse, before real-world validation. The challenges will cover everything from manipulation and perception to “agentic control,” and will even feature modular tasks from The LEGO Group and LEGO Education, presumably to ensure the next generation of roboticists knows their way around a brick separator. Beyond the headline-grabbing humanoid, the prize list is a robotics engineer’s dream. Top winners can expect to snag RTX 6000 Blackwell GPUs, Jetson Thor developer kits, and various robotic manipulators. The winning teams will also be flown to San Jose, California, for a prize ceremony just before NVIDIA’s GTC conference in March 2026.
