What stands out

What its maker marketed at launch, and what people found later, each with its source.

  • Open humanoid robot foundation model

    Announced at GTC 2025 as ‘the world’s first open humanoid robot foundation model’: a dual-system VLA (VLM ‘System 2’ + diffusion-transformer ‘System 1’) for cross-embodiment humanoid control, customizable with synthetic data.

Notes

Superseded by GR00T N1.7 (2026). ‘first’ is NVIDIA’s claim (open weights for a humanoid-specific generalist model; earlier open VLAs such as OpenVLA/Octo targeted arms).
