In detail
- Same AI agent plays Fortnite and controls a quadrupedal robot—the underlying model is identical.
- Only eight minutes of real-world robotics data needed to fine-tune the model for the robot; training data collected on the street, not in the office.
- Total funding now $454 million ($134 million in October 2025, $320 million now).
- Startup spun out of Medal, a platform for sharing gaming clips.
Why it matters
Training AI agents in games and transferring them to physical systems could radically accelerate robotics and automation—a model increasingly relevant for German manufacturing.
For you Track this development if you work in robotics or automation: sim-to-real transfer could shorten your development cycles and reduce training costs.
