Unitree open-sources upgraded UnifoLM-WLA-1.0 humanoid foundation model
Chinese robotics company Unitree said it has fully open-sourced an upgraded version of its general-purpose humanoid foundation model, UnifoLM-WLA-1.0, setting new state-of-the-art results on multiple global open-source embodied model benchmarks. The model can perform both tabletop manipulation and whole-body mobile manipulation with a single model, enabling cross-task and cross-end-effector generalization, Unitree said. It achieves a “one-model-driven, whole-body coordination” effect, the company added. Unitree said UnifoLM-WLA-1.0 was trained on large-scale general-purpose multimodal perception and understanding datasets and incorporates interaction-centric world modeling, significantly strengthening spatial perception and scene understanding. It outperformed several open-source competitors in China and overseas on multiple embodied reasoning benchmarks, with some capabilities comparable to mainstream closed-source models, according to the company. In real-robot tests, a single model completed...
