SIGGRAPH 2026 Explores the Future of Robotics Through Computer Graphics, Simulation, and Creative Expression

Published

The world’s premier conference on computer graphics showcases how the technologies behind film, games, and visual effects are shaping the next generation of robots

LOS ANGELES, July 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Computer graphics and robotics have been converging for years. At SIGGRAPH 2026, that convergence takes center stage as robots learn, move, create, and interact through technologies originally developed for film, games, and visual effects. Taking place 19–23 July at the Los Angeles Convention Center, the conference shows how advances in computer graphics are helping shape the future of intelligent machines, revealing a future where virtual worlds are increasingly used to train, test, and inspire robotic systems.

At SIGGRAPH 2026, robotics is not confined to a single program. It runs as a common thread across the conference, appearing in Technical Papers, Emerging Technologies, Courses, Frontiers, Spatial Storytelling, Art Papers, Talks, and Technical Workshops. Together, these sessions demonstrate how the same technologies used to create digital characters, immersive worlds, and visual effects are increasingly being used to design, train, and deploy robots capable of operating in complex real-world environments.

“The lines between computer graphics, physics, and AI are blurring. Because of that, you’re seeing robotics become more pervasive at the conference because these fields are naturally becoming more intertwined,” said SIGGRAPH 2026 Conference Chair Chris Redmann. “It opens up new horizons and pathways for computer graphics research and new modes of interactivity, where the physical world and the digital world become even more complementary.”

Training Robots in Virtual Worlds

A central theme across this year’s robotics programming is simulation-first development, in which robots are designed, trained, and validated in virtual environments before entering the physical world. A trio of NVIDIA-led courses anchors the thread: “How To Build End-To-End Physical AI Systems for Robots” covers data generation, training, and edge deployment for humanoid and general-purpose robots; “Accelerate Robot Learning With NVIDIA Isaac Lab and Newton” introduces a GPU-accelerated physics engine for training and evaluating robot policies; and “Simulating a Dextrous Hand For Robotics With OpenUSD” walks through preparing simulation-ready robot assets.

The same ideas drive a strong Technical Papers showing, where “SimArt: Decomposing Monolithic Meshes into Sim-ready Articulated Assets via MLLM” converts static 3D meshes into simulation-ready articulated assets, “MotionBricks: Scalable Real-Time Motions with Modular Latent Generative Model and Smart Primitives” generates real-time motion for animation and robotics, “ReActor: Reinforcement Learning for Physics-Aware Motion Retargeting” from Disney Research uses reinforcement learning to retarget human motion onto humanoid and quadruped forms, and “Computational Design of Terrestrial Robots with Anisotropic Friction”, from teams including Carnegie Mellon University, Genesis AI, Tsinghua University, and Shanghai Qi Zhi Institute, co-designs robot bodies and controllers for locomotion.

Rounding out the thread, the Technical Workshop “Differentiable Physics for Graphics and AI” examines how differentiable simulation is reshaping graphics, robotics, and design, and the Frontiers Workshop “Digital Twins for Science and Industry” looks at how virtual replicas are transforming healthcare, energy, and scientific visualization.

New Modes of Human-Robot Interaction

A second thread, concentrated in the Emerging Technologies program, reimagines how people and robots interact, often in strikingly personal ways. In “Katakko: Embodiment of Modular Robots through Automatic Motion Mapping”, attendees assemble communication-oriented modules into a personalized social robot and embody it through an algorithm that maps their own movements onto the machine. “Shall We Dance? Resonance of Intentions with an Embodied Agent based on the Free Energy Principle” introduces an agent that negotiates intentions through physical interaction, synchronizing with a human partner’s choreography and tempo in real time.

“Telekinetic Drive: Controlling Robots with Intent-Leaking Micro-Motions” lets participants move a robot arm through intent alone, drawing on the subtle micro-motions the body produces when it prepares to act; while “EmoMime: Augmenting Social Behavior and Self-Expression via Wearable Robotic Limbs” showcases a neck-mounted wearable that amplifies social signals and enables comforting self-touch. “Demonstrating StepDance: Redesigned CNC Machines Integrating Real-Time Control in Digital Fabrication” blends pre-planned and real-time control for craft-driven fabrication.

Robotics as a Creative Medium

Robotics also serves as a creative medium across the Art Papers, Spatial Storytelling, and Talks programs. In the Art Paper “Electrospun Fields: 3D Nano-Fiber Material Computation as Design Method”, a reproducible UR20 robotic workflow becomes a tool for expressive fabrication, producing ultra-light 3D membranes from bio-compatible polymers, while “Gorgon Loop: An Interactive Art Installation Revealing Algorithmic Judgment through Machine Vision and Generative Language” uses machine vision and language models to make algorithmic judgment in public space visible.

In Spatial Storytelling, “Dog Walk: Narrating Human-AI Alignment through Companion Robots” follows two artist-researchers co-parenting a pair of robot dogs as a meditation on authenticity, embodiment, and synthetic companionship, and “Ancestral Craft and Emerging Technologies: Designing Futures from Place” shares XR installations and robotic artworks developed in the Amazon rainforest, grounded in local knowledge and real-time graphics. The Talk “Behind ReVerie: Sense: Designing Interactive Fulldome Experiences with 3D Generative AI and Robotic Interfaces” extends that spirit into a co-creative fulldome installation built with 3D generative AI and a multisensory robotic sculpture.

That same convergence runs through the Spatial Storytelling program, where generative tools create accessible digital worlds that can host virtual characters and robotic agents. “Now you generate a world that is completely navigable, where you can put a virtual character, you can put a robot. It’s understanding how we live in a space, so it’s inevitably interlinked,’ explained Esen K. Tütüncü, SIGGRAPH 2026 Spatial Storytelling Chair. “For a robot to operate in the real world, it needs the kind of information that humans have been learning to gather since infancy. It’s deeply multimodal, and enabling robots to acquire that understanding requires a continuous cycle of observation, simulation, and training, one that is fundamentally rooted in computer graphics.”

Designing the Spaces People and Robots Share

Still other sessions point toward the spaces people and robots will share. The Frontiers Workshop “Dronevision, Holodecks, and Spatial Computing Using Swarms of Flying Light Specks” explores miniature drones that act as building blocks for next-generation displays, from desktop systems to room-scale holodecks, and “Graphics in Medicine: From the Dev Floor to the Operating Room 2” convenes physicians to examine XR, digital twins, simulation, and robotics in clinical settings.

Taken together, the robotics sessions, demonstrations, and workshops at SIGGRAPH 2026 point to a future in which the boundaries between computer graphics and robotics intersect. As simulation, AI, and real-time computing become central to how robots are designed, trained, and deployed, SIGGRAPH remains a place where those advances are shown, tested, and debated in person.

What’s Next for Webull Corporation Shareholders After 19.09% Stock Drop? Glancy Prongay Wolke & Rotter LLP Explains Securities Fraud Class Action Lead Plaintiff Deadline

Published

on

By

Complaint alleges Webull Corporation misled investors between April 26, 2025 and October 6, 2026; investors may seek lead plaintiff role by December 7, 2026

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Glancy Prongay Wolke & Rotter LLP (“Glancy”) announced today that the class action lawsuit covers investors who bought Webull Corporation (“Webull” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BULL) securities between April 26, 2025 and October 6, 2026. The Webull Corporation case, Ward v. Webull Corporation et al., was filed on October 8, 2026 in the U.S. District Court Middle District of Florida (Tampa) (Case No. 8:26-cv-03052).

Investors who suffered losses on Webull Corporation investments can submit their Webull Corporation loss information here before the December 7, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline.

Key dates in the Webull Corporation case

Class period: April 26, 2025 to October 6, 2026Complaint filed: October 8, 2026Lead plaintiff deadline: December 7, 2026

What happened?

On October 7, 2026, the bipartisan House Select Committee on China issued a report which found “a profound gap” between Webull’s public marketing as “an American company” and actual control of the alleged St. Petersburg, Florida-based firm. The committee reportedly found “Webull’s ownership architecture, technical workforce, technology infrastructure, cross-border data routing, corporate financing, and compliance frameworks are tied in structural ways to the People’s Republic of China.” The Select Committee also reportedly found that Webull initially told the Select Committee that it had no offices or employees in China, while Webull’s mainland China subsidiary in fact employed approximately 863 employees, or 62% of Webull’s global workforce.

Webull Corporation stock fell $1.39 or 19.09%, to close at $5.89 on October 7, 2026, thereby injuring investors.

What is the Webull Corporation lawsuit about?

The Webull Corporation securities lawsuit alleges that, between April 26, 2025 and October 6, 2026, defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and failed to disclose material adverse facts about Webull Corporation’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, the complaint alleges defendants failed to disclose that: (1) Webull’s mainland China operations were not limited to research and development and technical support functions, but rather Webull’s software development, data pipelines, and core engineering depended on PRC-based personnel and on infrastructure subject to Chinese law; (2) Webull’s ownership structure, technical workforce, technology infrastructure, cross-border data routing, financing, and compliance structure were structurally tied to China; (3) as a result, Webull’s representations that its principal business operations were based in the U.S. and that its U.S. customer data was insulated from non-U.S. access materially overstated Webull’s independence from the PRC; and (4) as a result, defendants’ positive statements about Webull Corporation’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

“The complaint filed against Webull Corporation alleges that, among other things, the Company failed to disclose that Webull’s mainland China operations were not limited to research and development and technical support functions, but rather Webull’s software development, data pipelines, and core engineering depended on PRC-based personnel and on infrastructure subject to Chinese law. For investors who bought during the class period, the December 7, 2026 deadline is the first major step in this case,” said Charles H. Linehan, Partner at Glancy Prongay Wolke & Rotter LLP.

Takes Controlling Stake in AI Harness Business to Advance a Third Growth Engine

HONG KONG, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — NetDragon Websoft Holdings Limited (“NetDragon” or the “Company”; Hong Kong Stock Code: 0777), a global leader in building internet communities, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a legally binding memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) with Jiuzhou Culture (“Jiuzhou”), a leading AIGC short drama production and distribution company in China, to establish a joint venture (“JV”) in which NetDragon will hold a 51% controlling interest. The partnership will focus on artificial intelligence technologies, AIGC-powered content creation and digital technology services, further expanding NetDragon’s AI application scenarios and commercialisation opportunities while accelerating the development of a new growth engine.

Deepening the Integration of AIGC and Content to Build a Diversified Digital Business Platform

Rapid advances in AIGC are continuing to reshape content creation, digital entertainment and software services. With the ongoing maturation of generative AI, large-scale AI models and AI agents, AI is evolving from a supporting tool into a productivity platform that can enhance the entire value chain, from content creation and production to operations and commercialisation. Through the JV Company, NetDragon and Jiuzhou will combine their complementary strengths in technology, IP, content and industry resources to accelerate the deployment of AIGC across real-world commercial applications.

Under the MOU, Jiuzhou will inject into the JV Company all intellectual property, technologies and assets relating to the AI Harness system business, laying a solid foundation for product development and commercialisation. NetDragon will contribute Hong Kong dollars cash equivalent to RMB 50 million to the JV Company, acquire a 51% shareholding interest and consolidate the JV Company’s financial results. The JV Company will focus on expanding foundational artificial intelligence software, large-scale AI models and the AI Harness system business. It is expected to serve as the first commercial validation platform in China for NetDragon’s “AI ecosystem co-creation” strategy, marking the launch of the Company’s third growth engine and laying the groundwork for the business model to be replicated and scaled across various sectors.

To accelerate the scalable commercialisation of the AI Harness business, the transaction also incorporates a multi-tiered, progressive performance-based incentive warrant scheme. NetDragon will issue 25 million unlisted warrants to Jiuzhou at an issue price of HK$0.10 per warrant share, to be granted in three tranches with initial exercise prices of HK$10, HK$12 and HK$15, respectively. The warrants will only become exercisable upon achievement of specified key performance indicators by the JV Company. Assuming full exercise of all warrants at the initial exercise prices, NetDragon will receive aggregate gross proceeds of approximately HK$314 million, which will supplement the Company’s development capital while achieving deep alignment of interests and shared equity upside with its strategic partner. 

Strengthening AI Ecosystem Synergies to Drive a Third Growth Engine

As generative AI becomes increasingly integrated into content production, digital services and global operations, NetDragon and Jiuzhou will take this collaboration as a new starting point to fully leverage their complementary strengths and accelerate the commercialisation of AI capabilities, translating technological innovation into tangible business value. In recent years, NetDragon has continued to advance its AI strategy across AI+gaming, AI+education and enterprise intelligence, while actively exploring emerging AI businesses with the potential to establish independent commercial models. Jiuzhou, meanwhile, has built deep expertise in micro-dramas and digital content, with an integrated value chain spanning copyright operations, content creation, co-production, paid distribution and official distribution. It has also continued to expand the use of AIGC across content production, creation and operations. The two parties will further explore the deep integration of AI technology with the content industry, accelerating the implementation of AI capabilities in scenarios such as content generation, AI model applications, translation and localisation, platform operations, and enterprise technology services, to build scalable and sustainable business models.

Following the launch of the MOYU AI platform in August 2026, NetDragon’s investment and controlling stake in the AI Harness business marks another important step in increasing resource allocation to its AI business and broadening its long-term growth pathways. The performance-linked equity incentive collaboration with Jiuzhou is expected to establish a new model of strategic collaboration for NetDragon, enabling the Company and its partners to grow the business together and share in the value created. Looking ahead, NetDragon will remain focused on its core AI business, deepen technological innovation and resource integration, and leverage its established strengths in gaming and education alongside the emerging growth engine of AI ecosystem co-creation. Under this three-pronged strategy, the Company aims to continuously strengthen its core competitiveness, enhance long-term investment value, and deliver sustainable returns to shareholders.
