  1. Run the Isaac Sim container with an interactive Bash session:

$ docker run --name isaac-sim --entrypoint bash -it --runtime=nvidia --gpus all -e "ACCEPT_EULA=Y" --rm --network=host \
    -e "PRIVACY_CONSENT=Y" \
    -v ~/docker/isaac-sim/cache/kit:/isaac-sim/kit/cache:rw \
    -v ~/docker/isaac-sim/cache/ov:/root/.cache/ov:rw \
    -v ~/docker/isaac-sim/cache/pip:/root/.cache/pip:rw \
    -v ~/docker/isaac-sim/cache/glcache:/root/.cache/nvidia/GLCache:rw \
    -v ~/docker/isaac-sim/cache/computecache:/root/.nv/ComputeCache:rw \
    -v ~/docker/isaac-sim/cache/computecache:/root/.nv/ComputeCache:rw \
    -v ~/docker/isaac-sim/logs:/root/.nvidia-omniverse/logs:rw \
    -v ~/docker/isaac-sim/data:/root/.local/share/ov/data:rw \
    -v ~/docker/isaac-sim/documents:/root/Documents:rw \
    nvcr.io/nvidia/isaac-sim:5.0.0

Note

  • By using the -e "ACCEPT_EULA=Y" flag, you accept the license agreement of the image found at NVIDIA Omniverse License Agreement.

  • By using the -e "PRIVACY_CONSENT=Y" flag, you opt-in to the data collection agreement found at Data Collection & Usage. You may opt-out by not setting this flag.

  • The -e "PRIVACY_USERID=<email>" flag can optionally be set for tagging the session logs.

  1. Start Isaac Sim with native livestream mode:

$ PUBLIC_IP=$(curl -s ifconfig.me) && ./runheadless.sh --/app/livestream/publicEndpointAddress=$PUBLIC_IP --/app/livestream/port=49100

  1. Connect to the same public IP address of the instance using the Isaac Sim WebRTC Streaming Client app.
