Egocentric Videos for Robot Training 🧵 Researchers at NYU and UC Berkeley published research where they developed a system called EgoZero that trains robots using human demonstration videos recorded with smart glasses. 👓 The system converts first-person human actions into 3D point-based state-action representations. The policies executed on a gripper-equipped robot, achieved a 70% zero-shot success rate across seven manipulation tasks, with only 20 minutes of human data per task. EgoZero stands as one of the solid empirical proofs that egocentric smart-glass video collected from everyday human behavior can serve as powerful, scalable training data for real robot learning.

Excited to share our latest work on 🎧spatial audio-driven human motion generation. We aim to tackle a largely underexplored yet important problem of enabling virtual humans to move naturally in response to spatial audio—capturing not just what is heard, but also where the sound is coming from. To this end, we introduce the Spatial Audio-Driven Human Motion (SAM) dataset—the first comprehensive dataset featuring paired high-quality human motion and spatial audio recordings. For benchmarking, we develop a generative framework for human MOtion generation driven by SPAtial audio, termed MOSPA, which learns to synthesize realistic and diverse human motions conditioned on spatial audio input. We hope this research could provide a foundation for future research in spatial perception, virtual characters, and embodied AI. The dataset and model will be open-sourced soon. A big thank you to our intern, Shuyang Xu, for the wonderful collaboration! Congratulations, Shuyang!

The largest fully annotated open egocentric human dataset. Today we're open-sourcing EgoSuite-Open100K with Hugging Face : 100,000 hours of egocentric human data, free for anyone to use. Physical AI has a scaling law of its own now, and its input is human data. That part is settled. What the field still needs is a shared foundation to build on. 15,000+ tasks. 15,000+ real scenes, from factory floors to retail backrooms. Hand pose, body pose and subtask-level semantics, with wrist camera coverage on part of the set. Licensed for commercial training, not research-only. We build the data infrastructure for Physical AI. Open100K is the first public layer of it. The first 10,000 hours are live now, with the rest rolling out in stages.

Skild AI is laying its cards on the table (partially, anyway). Teleoperation data lacks diversity and is limited by a 1:1 human operator time-scale. To address this, Skild pre-trained its model using internet-scale video data (already widely available in the form of first-person "egocentric" headcam footage to millions of instructional YouTube videos).

What would a World Model look like if we start from a real embodied agent acting in the real world? It has to have: 1) A real, physically grounded and complex action space—not just abstract control signals. 2) Diverse, real-life scenarios and activities. Or in short: It has to be annoyingly complex—in both the action and vision space—to even get close to real life. We did an initial attempt: Whole-Body Conditioned Egocentric Video Prediction. In collaboration with @dans_t123 , Amir Bar, Yann LeCun , trevordarrell and Jitendra MALIK. (For more details, check: What we did is very simple: Predict Egocentric Video from human Actions (PEVA) - Given the past video and a future action represented by relative 3D body pose, PEVA predicts how the world looks next—from the first-person view. By conditioning on kinematic pose trajectories, structured by the joint hierarchy of the body, it learns how physical actions shape perception.

In my past research experience, finding or developing an appropriate simulation environment, dataset, and benchmark has always been a challenge. Missing features, limited support, or unexpected bugs often occupied my days and nights. Moreover, current simulation platforms are relatively fragmented—making it challenging to replicate the success of the RT-X dataset in unifying community efforts. Introducing RoboVerse, we provide a unified platform, dataset, and benchmark for scalable and generalizable robot learning. We hope to build a shared foundation to combine the community efforts. RoboVerse includes: MetaSim: We carefully designed a configuration system and a universal interface to align current robotic simulators. With MetaSim, you can use any simulator with the same code—bringing together the community’s diverse efforts under one framework! RoboVerse Dataset and Benchmark: We unify popular simulation environments and benchmarks into a single cohesive system and introduce the RoboVerse dataset—a large-scale, high-quality synthetic dataset. Additionally, we propose a standardized benchmark across both imitation learning and reinforcement learning. A cool feature enabled by our unified framework: Hybrid Simulation! You can now integrate physics engines and renderers from different simulators—e.g., using MuJoCo precise physics with Isaac photorealistic rendering. This not only elevates simulation fidelity but also significantly enhances real-world transfer performance across complex robotic applications. Hopefully, our team’s efforts could serve the robotic community to thrive vibrantly in the years to come. RoboVerse is open-sourced🥳!!! Project Page: Documentation: Github Repo: Paper:

We present EgoReAct: Real-time 3D human reaction generation from streaming egocentric video. 🌟Reacting to streaming egocentric video is something humans do every day. We hope EgoReAct makes human motion more human-like. 🔎 What we found: existing ego-reaction data can be spatially inconsistent (e.g., moving reactions paired with fixed-camera videos), which breaks 3D grounding. 📷 What we built: HRD, a spatially aligned egocentric video–reaction dataset (3,500 pairs, 32 categories), plus a spatially aligned ViMo fix for fair evaluation. (Instead of collecting expensive ground-truth motion, we employ VDM to generate the egocentric videos.) 👁️⚡🏃 Our simple yet effective pipeline: motion tokenization for compact discrete codes + an autoregressive Transformer for online, strictly-causal generation. Metric depth and head dynamics further improve 3D spatial consistency.

Runway has unveiled a massive breakthrough in AI video generation at NVIDIA's GTC event, showcasing a new model capable of generating high-definition video in genuine real-time. The new model boasts a "time-to-first-frame" of under 100 milliseconds. This means HD video begins generating and playing almost the instant a command is given. This research preview was co-developed with NVIDIA and runs on their newly announced Vera Rubin architecture. This real-time capability is a foundational step for Runway's General World Model (GWM-1). It pushes the technology beyond simple video generation and into the realm of live, interactive environments.

Humanoid Robots Get a Soul: Inside AheadForm's Empathy Engine Newcomer AheadForm just secured two funding rounds in three months, highlighting strong investor confidence in their unique approach to humanoid robots. Founded by a Columbia University Ph.D. Hu Yuhang, the company is betting that the key to mainstream adoption isn't just function, but empathy. They’ve built their tech on three core pillars: ► Autonomous Learning: Robots can learn and adapt on their own through "mirror self-perception" and self-modeling. ► Emotional Foundation Model: A model that processes multimodal data to give robots the ability to understand and respond with natural empathy. ► Bionic Face Hardware: A self-developed, highly realistic face designed to cross the "uncanny valley" and spark genuine human connection. Their core product, the Emo robot, is a bionic platform with real-time expression feedback. AheadForm believes this "Humanoid Empathy Value" is the key to commercial success, starting with applications in brand stores and theme parks. Internal testing is set to begin later this year. They also just announced a new humanoid model, the "Elf·Xuan," a new milestone for their "Elf Project," which began in 2024 to turn virtual inspiration into a physical bionic robot.
