ULTRA is a unified framework for autonomous humanoid whole-body locomotion and manipulation that overcomes limitations of prior methods by combining a physics-driven neural retargeting algorithm with a multimodal controller. The retargeting algorithm translates large-scale motion capture data into physically plausible humanoid motions, while the controller learns to handle both dense motion references and sparse task specifications using a range of sensory inputs, from accurate motion-capture states to noisy egocentric vision. In simulation and on a real Unitree G1 humanoid, ULTRA demonstrates improved generalization and robustness, enabling coordinated whole-body behavior from sparse intent without relying on test-time reference motions.

GigaBrain-WBC-0.5 is a Behavior World Model that uses a causal Transformer to predict next actions, states, and a distribution over latent behavior commands for humanoid whole-body control. It incorporates an automatic terrain-annotation pipeline to recover 3D contact geometry from motion data, allowing the model to learn how terrain and objects influence dynamics. The system detects implausible commands online, retracts them onto learned behaviors, and achieves high success rates in terrain interaction, command robustness, and fall recovery, with promising hardware trials on different robots.
