Zhiyuan Robotics, NVIDIA and Universities Launch WorldOracle Platform for Robot World Models

On October 20, Zhiyuan Robotics, together with NVIDIA and several universities, officially released WorldOracle, described as the world's first action-driven world model evaluation platform that uses real execution as a benchmark, providing a unified standard for robot simulation training.

Zhiyuan Robotics is a robot company focused on general embodied intelligence, while NVIDIA is a leading provider of AI computing platforms and chips. The universities involved in the collaboration were not named. WorldOracle is designed to evaluate action-driven world models based on real-world execution performance, offering a standardized reference for robot simulation training.

The announcement came as physical AI-related stocks gained in China's A-share market. Earlier, AMD agreed to acquire World Labs, a world model company co-founded by Fei-Fei Li, and OpenAI's CEO confirmed plans to develop humanoid robots with a focus on AI "brains." Major tech companies are increasingly investing in physical AI.
