Delta Intelligence, a startup founded by UCLA PhDs, has secured nearly 500 million yuan in its latest funding round to develop foundational models for humanoid robots. The company focuses on creating "Humanoid Foundation Models" (HFMs) that enable full-body coordinated operation, aiming to accelerate the arrival of physical AGI. Their approach emphasizes native 3D world engines for better spatial understanding and a "brain-cerebellum" architecture for precise motor control, differentiating them from models relying on 2D representations.
