Dream Labs raises $90M seed round and releases Dream-1 world action model
Overview
Dream Labs, founded by former NVIDIA DreamZero team members, has released the embodied model Dream-1, which supports zero-shot task execution across different robots. The model demonstrates strong generalization capabilities in both simulated and real-world environments, achieving the top score in the RoboDojo-RC Tier 1 test. Dream-1 learns to predict visual scenes and actions through a world action model (WAM), allowing it to perform tasks on previously unseen dual-arm robots without additional adaptation.
