We hosted @Numerama in our lab for their deep dive on the humanoid race between the US and China. Our CEO @RemiCadene on what real autonomy looks like beyond spectacular demos, and where Europe fits in. Full video (in French) 👇

It will accelerate UMA’s world models that plan in latent space, simulating trajectories before a robot even moves, so safety and efficiency come by design. And because they can learn from unlabeled video rather than robot data alone, these world models can build an understanding of the physical world faster. Excited to work along 9 other teams toward the next generation of frontier AI labs.

The guy that makes our robots move! It's amazing how much you've achieved already. Can't wait for the next steps! (pun intended😉)

Behind Version 0: locomotion, simulation, and a lot of long days. Welcome @LouisLeLay4, excited to see it walk further
I joined @UMA_Robots a few months ago to focus on locomotion and simulation. (1/4) 🧵

At UMA, we build and own the full stack, from hardware to software. This allows us to bake safety in at all levels, rather than bolt it on as an afterthought. Because trust is everything when robots share our world. Reach out if you want to be part of this journey.

Former Tesla scientist Rémi Cadene plans to produce a humanoid AI robot for manufacturing, logistics and homes, with his Paris-based startup #UMA. He showed an early prototype at their Paris HQ yesterday :

We measure our model’s performance from a deployment perspective: how many hours can the robot run autonomously in a challenging and messy environment?

Excited by what we’ve achieved in the last 9 months. We went from a model that could merely pick objects to one that can run autonomously for hours on challenging, high-precision tasks.
AI developed at @UMA_Robots Single neural network, End to End It operates robustly for hours, with precision, adapting to what it sees.

In less than 9 months, we designed and assembled a prototype of our humanoid robot, built our data pipeline, training infra, firmware, and AI stack from the ground up. The task below requires millimeter-level precision. It's a validation of the entire pipeline.
