Welcome

Welcome to the NVIDIA GEAR group led by Dr. Jim Fan and Prof. Yuke Zhu. At GEAR, our mission is to build foundation models for embodied agents in virtual and physical worlds. Our research agenda encompasses:

  • Multimodal Foundation Models

    LLMs for planning and reasoning, vision-language models, and world models trained on Internet-scale data

  • General-Purpose Robots

    Robotic models and systems for locomotion and dexterous manipulation in complex environments

  • Foundation Agents

    Large action models that autonomously explore and bootstrap capabilities across games and simulations

  • Simulation & Synthetic Data

    Simulation infrastructure and synthetic data pipelines for large-scale learning
