Embodied Intelligence Challenge Teach a robot to do something it couldn’t do before. Foundation models are moving out of the screen and into the physical world. At the Embodied Intelligence Challenge, teams will build on Godela’s hyper-realistic physics environment to train a robot to complete a complex task. Design the behavior, train it in simulation, and show us how well it transfers to the real—or realistically simulated—world. Your robot might: - Manipulate unfamiliar objects - Complete a multi-step household task - Navigate a changing environment - Coordinate locomotion and manipulation - Recover when its original plan fails - Learn a new skill from limited demonstrations We’ll provide the simulation environment, starter models, technical support, and challenge criteria. Come with a team or meet collaborators during kickoff. ## Who should attend Robotics engineers, ML researchers, simulation developers, students, designers, and builders interested in embodied intelligence. Robotics experience is helpful, but not required for every member of a team. Schedule - **[9:00 AM]** Doors and breakfast - **[9:30 AM]** Challenge reveal and environment demo - **[10:15 AM]** Team formation - **[10:30 AM]** Build and training session - **[12:30 PM]** Lunch - **[7:00 PM]** Evaluation window - **[8:00 PM]** Robot demos - **[9:00 PM]** Awards and celebration Projects will be judged on task completion, robustness, technical creativity, and quality of the final demonstration. ## Grand prize The winning team takes home a **Unitree robot**. Bring your laptop. We’ll bring the physics—and the robot.This event is a part of #SFTechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.
