“Together, we transform IMAGINATIONs into REALITY”
We believe in challenging the limits of how we see and understand the world. We believe that a good model must be explainable by a set of simple and concrete principles. The way we challenge the limits is by building an intelligent model that can recreate the world we perceive. With the help of signal processing and deep learning, we develop a model that analyzes and synthesizes millions of images, audios, and videos to acquire “world models.”
