Open World
Hackathon
One weekend. Teams build agents that move, grasp, and reason in the real world , on a proprietary dataset by VLGE.
Physical AI is bottlenecked by data. We're opening it up.
The Open World Hackathon brings builders together for one weekend to push the frontier of embodied intelligence , agents that perceive, navigate, and act in unstructured environments.
Every team builds on a proprietary human-behavioral dataset provided by VLGE , real worlds, real people, real behavior. It's a working demonstration of what grounded, transparent training data unlocks.
VLGE is building the human behavioral data layer for physical AI. This event is our bet on transparency: shared data, open tracks, and models judged on how well they understand the real world.
Three tracks.
$10,000 worth in prizes.
Open Narrative
Build real-world scenarios and puzzle experiences inside VLGE. Capture real environments with 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) for photoreal worlds, or build faster using VLGE's growing library of 3D templates. Whether it's an escape room, a navigation challenge, or a recreation of a real-life situation, create an experience that feels believable, immersive, and fun to solve.
VLGE Together
Create multiplayer worlds that bring people together. Build experiences where users collaborate, compete, explore, or simply hang out in real time. From co-op challenges and party games to social hubs and live events, the best worlds will make people want to come back and play together.
Free Track
Got an idea that doesn't fit anywhere else? This is your chance to build it. Use any tools, data, or features available in VLGE, from world generation and behavioral telemetry to spatial capture and templates. Surprise us with something original that pushes the platform further than we thought possible.
August 25 , one build day.
Judged by operators from the frontier.
The human behavioral data layer powering the post-training supply chain for physical AI. Real worlds, real people, real behavior.
