An interactive world model developed by NVIDIA in collaboration with academic partners. - DreamDojo turns egocentric human video data into physical intelligence. - Human data is more scalable than robotics data but lacks action labels. - To solve this, a dedicated action model extracts latent actions by identifying physics and motion deltas between frames. Training - A massive 44k hours of video data are used for pre-training. - Post-training on small-scale robot datasets maps human physics to specific robot embodiments. - An additional distillation stage converts the model into an autoregressive, few-step diffusion model, enabling real-time, action-controllable simulation. Primary Use Cases - Live Teleoperation: Controlling a robot inside a world simulation in real-time. - Model-based Planning: Previewing and curating the best actions for improved success. - Policy Evaluation: Testing robot policies in realistic, out-of-distribution scenarios. Everything that's open-sourced: weights, code, post-training dataset, eval set, and details to reproduce.

We open-source Action Images — a new representation that translates 7-DoF robot actions into interpretable images. Video models are emerging as powerful robotic foundation models, but a key challenge remains: how can we seamlessly integrate robot policies into video models? Instead of representing actions as low-dimensional control tokens, Action Images provide a pixel-grounded action representation, reframing policy learning as a visual tracking problem! By unifying observations and actions in the same video space, Action Images enable a unified robotics world model that supports video-action joint generation, action-conditioned video generation, and action labeling! Code: Paper:

A humanoid robot policy trained solely on synthetic data generated by a world model. Research Scientist Joel Jang presents NVIDIA's DreamGen pipeline: ⦿ Post-train the world model Cosmos-Predict2 with a small set of real teleoperation demos. ⦿ Prompt the world model to generate synthetic video data with verbs and scenarios not used in the world model’s post-training. ⦿ Auto-label synthetic video data with action sequences. ⦿ Train robot policies using only synthetic data. That's it. Deploy zero-shot to a real humanoid robot.

Diffusion has shown great promise for generating robot **actions**, can it act as a **world model** to generate the future conditioned on actions? In our work led by han qi Haocheng Yin and in collaboration with Yilun Du, we show a **controllable** action-conditioned video diffusion model can produce photorealistic and (near) physics-accurate future predictions. This ability strengthens the policy via: - ranking different action proposals and selecting the best, or - **visual** trajectory optimization by optimizing the action proposals using gradient ascent.

We’re excited to share DiT4DiT, an end-to-end Video-Action Model for robot learning that unifies a video Diffusion Transformer and an action Diffusion Transformer in a single cascaded framework. By leveraging the rich spatiotemporal and physical dynamics learned through video generation, rather than static image-text priors, DiT4DiT achieves state-of-the-art results on LIBERO (98.6%) and RoboCasa GR1 (50.8%) with far less training data, delivering over 10× better sample efficiency and up to 7× faster convergence. Real-world deployment on a humanoid robot further shows robust generalization. We believe this is a step toward making video generation a powerful backbone for robot policy learning. This work builds upon the brilliant foundations laid by Nvidia's GR00T and Cosmos. Project: Paper: Code: Coming soon. In the meantime, you can ask your coding agent to reproduce the method based on GR00T/Cosmos.

This looks like another step toward removing the data bottleneck in robotics. The bottleneck exists because recording demonstrations is easy, but labeling every grasp, hold, move, and release is slow and expensive. Perceptron Egocentric dropped a new robotics video annotation system. You give it raw robot-camera or first-person/egocentric video. It gives back structured labels that look more like training data: where each small manipulation starts and ends, what the subtask is, what each hand is doing, where the hands are frame by frame, and which hand is left or right. So, Input: raw video of a person or robot doing a task. Output: a machine-readable breakdown of the physical actions inside that video. Basically, it is a machine that converts robot video into policy-training supervision. That means timestamps, subtask boundaries, per-hand actions, and left-right hand grounding. So this will turn large piles of robot or egocentric video into supervision for training robot policies.

Instead of choosing between training a world model and training a language conditioned robot policy, why not do both? LDA-1B s a new foundation model that is trained on 30,000 hours of human and robot interaction data. Part of the secret is that LDA-1B jointly learns forward dynamics, action prediction, and visual forecasting, all in a structured DINO latent space which avoids the pitfalls of redundant pixel-level prediction which isn’t necessarily aligned robot action. This approach works on both dexterous hands and simple robot grippers; it also generalizes across objects, tasks, and scenes. Jiangran Lyu joins us to explain. Learn more on Episode 98 of RoboPapers, with Michael Cho - Rbt/Acc and Chris Paxton!
