Research
Model motion, model the world.
The AI systems that will operate within the physical world — humanoid robots, world models, autonomous agents — need training data that reflects that reality.
At Cartwheel, we build the kinetic world models and datasets that make physical AI training tractable at scale.
The human body is the world's most powerful platform and the fastest route to physical AI.
We've discovered that human motion data scales. Models that generate human kinematic spatiotemporal data improve at a predictable rate with increased training data, compute, model size and the correct training approach.
All rapidly scaling data modalities did so after a similar pattern was discovered: language, code, image, audio, video, self-driving. Human kinematics scale in the same regime as language, with 300x more efficiency.
We've built and trained on the largest human motion corpus assembled to date.
If you're building embodied AI, we'd like to talk.
