World Labs announced that simulation and robotics startup SceniX is joining its spatial intelligence division.

The transaction combines the company’s world model research with SceniX’s expertise in training and evaluating robots through high-fidelity simulation, which the teams noted has already been deployed on physical hardware. The integration aims to accelerate progress on closing the real-to-simulation gap for advanced robot learning.

I am excited to share that SceniX is joining World Labs! We built SceniX to close the real-to-sim gap for robot learning. Joining forces with @drfeifei, @jcjohnss, and @BenMildenhall and the @theworldlabs team means we close that gap faster

The world is not just made of words, and spatial intelligence was never just about perceiving and generating worlds. It's about interacting with them. Today, SceniX is joining World Labs. 🌎🤖👇

@drfeifei

@YunzhuLiYZ, @fast_sploosh, and @xhsonny have built a remarkable team that is training and evaluating robots in high-fidelity simulation – proven not only in lab demos, but in live deployments on real hardware. Last month, we wrote that th
