# UnifoLM, brain

Unitree Robotics' open-source unified-large-model series for general-purpose robot learning — comprising UnifoLM-WMA-0 (world-model–action) and UnifoLM-VLA-0 (vision–language–action). Unitree's G1 humanoid integrates UnifoLM-WMA-0.

## Architecture

Unitree's open-source unified-large-model series for general-purpose robot learning across multiple embodiments. UnifoLM-WMA-0 (world-model–action): a world model of robot–environment physical interaction, used both as a simulation engine for synthetic data and as a policy-enhancement head that predicts future environmental states (video prediction translated into limb actions). UnifoLM-VLA-0 (vision–language–action): a VLA for general-purpose humanoid manipulation, built on a UnifoLM-VLM base. Open-sourced on Unitree's GitHub (WMA-0 Sept 2025; VLA-0 Jan 2026).


## Key facts

- **Open-source:** UnifoLM-WMA-0 (world-model-action) open-sourced Sept 2025; UnifoLM-VLA-0 (vision-language-action, code+weights) Jan 29, 2026 — on Unitree's official GitHub.
- **Powers (verified):** Unitree G1 integrates UnifoLM-WMA-0 (vision+language+action), per Yicai Global (Sept 16, 2025); G1 is the named real-robot platform for UnifoLM-VLA-0.
- **Series:** UnifoLM-WMA-0 (world-model–action) + UnifoLM-VLA-0 (vision–language–action); designed for multiple robotic embodiments / general-purpose robot learning.
- **Wiring scope:** Wired to G1 only. R1 and H1 left unwired — no primary source names them as UnifoLM platforms (honest absence over inferred presence).
- **DEPLOY maturity rationale:** Open-source research release powering research-tier G1; classified research (brain), not commercial.
