Research
We work on some of the most complex and interesting challenges in physical intelligence
Breakthroughs
Explore some of the biggest innovations in world models, many of which underpin how machines understand physical reality.
GENE
A foundation world model that doesn’t just describe the world — it dreams it forward, one simulation at a time.
Learn moreHylikos Robotic
Physical agents that actively understand their environments and act with embodied reasoning.
Learn moreHylikos Sim
Photorealistic simulation for policy inference, evaluation, and synthetic data generation.
Learn moreHylikos Game
Design a game from one image, then roam film and television scenes with a camera you control.
Learn moreEmbodied policy
Run policy inference through photorealistic simulation, then fit it to the hardware you already have.
Learn moreGeneralization
Challenging robots to handle unseen objects autonomously — testing the limits of transfer from sim to reality.

Understanding the inner thoughts of AI
What if you were to peer inside the ‘mind’ of AI? You wouldn't find fully formed thoughts, just vast arrays of numbers.
World Generation with Camera Control
A generative world model that treats the camera as a first-class control. Novel viewpoints are synthesized on demand — overhead, table-level, or first-person — while geometry, occlusion, and dynamics remain consistent.
GENE: dreaming physical reality forward
A vision for world models and simulations — from predicting the next frame to running policy in photorealistic environments.
Hylikos robotics lab tour
Watch as the team tests the limits of generalization, challenging robots to handle unseen objects autonomously.
The future of labor
We build models that ship, deploy, and get to work. Safety, reliability, and real-world impact come first.
