MaterialFusion Enhancing Inverse Rendering with Material Diffusion Priors discuss: Recent works in inverse rendering have shown promise in using multi-view images of an object to recover shape, albedo, and materials. However, the recovered components often fail to render accurately under new lighting conditions due to the intrinsic challenge of disentangling albedo and material properties from input images. To address this challenge, we introduce MaterialFusion, an enhanced conventional 3D inverse rendering pipeline that incorporates a 2D prior on texture and material properties. We present StableMaterial, a 2D diffusion model prior that refines multi-lit data to estimate the most likely albedo and material from given input appearances. This model is trained on albedo, material, and relit image data derived from a curated dataset of approximately ~12K artist-designed synthetic Blender objects called BlenderVault. we incorporate this diffusion prior with an inverse rendering framework where we use score distillation sampling (SDS) to guide the optimization of the albedo and materials, improving relighting performance in comparison with previous work. We validate MaterialFusion's relighting performance on 4 datasets of synthetic and real objects under diverse illumination conditions, showing our diffusion-aided approach significantly improves the appearance of reconstructed objects under novel lighting conditions. We intend to publicly release our BlenderVault dataset to support further research in this field.

Not the flashiest demos, but what’s under the hood represents a foundational shift for general-purpose robotics. World models are the next-gen foundation of Physical AI, not the VLM backbones found in typical VLAs. DreamZero is a 14B-parameter World Action Model (WAM) by NVIDIA that treats robotics as a joint video-and-action prediction task. Unlike traditional Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models that map images directly to motor commands, DreamZero leverages a pretrained video diffusion backbone to predict future world states and actions simultaneously. - achieves 2× better zero-shot generalization to unseen tasks and environments compared to state-of-the-art VLAs. - learns effectively from heterogeneous, non-repetitive data (500 hours), breaking the need for thousands of repeated demonstrations. - adapts to new robot embodiments with just 30 minutes of play data. - enables 7Hz closed-loop control via system optimizations and "DreamZero-Flash," making high-capacity diffusion models viable for real-time use.

TokenFlow: Consistent Diffusion Features for Consistent Video Editing paper page: The generative AI revolution has recently expanded to videos. Nevertheless, current state-of-the-art video models are still lagging behind image models in terms of visual quality and user control over the generated content. In this work, we present a framework that harnesses the power of a text-to-image diffusion model for the task of text-driven video editing. Specifically, given a source video and a target text-prompt, our method generates a high-quality video that adheres to the target text, while preserving the spatial layout and motion of the input video. Our method is based on a key observation that consistency in the edited video can be obtained by enforcing consistency in the diffusion feature space. We achieve this by explicitly propagating diffusion features based on inter-frame correspondences, readily available in the model. Thus, our framework does not require any training or fine-tuning, and can work in conjunction with any off-the-shelf text-to-image editing method. We demonstrate state-of-the-art editing results on a variety of real-world videos.

SpiRobs morphologically replicate the logarithmic spiral that is ubiquitous in natural organisms. They are easy and fast to build across scales via 3D printing. They are actuated by cables, which allow for fast and life-like movements. Besides, a single robot can handle a wide variety of objects (in terms of size, shape, and weight). A key to this is a bioinspired grasping strategy that is found in the octopus. Finally, this work demonstrates a wide range of prototypes, including a miniaturized gripper, a manipulator mounted on a drone, and multi-robot arrays that can grasp in a tendril-like fashion.

The power of generative models — now embodied in humanoids. Announcing DreamControl –– After a year-long research effort at General Robotics — we present a scalable framework for whole-body humanoid control that fuses diffusion priors with reinforcement learning to unlock real-world scene interaction. Diffusion + RL → natural whole-body skills on real robots. DreamControl enables humanoids to move beyond locomotion demos → performing natural, human-like skills such as –– Picking & lifting objects, Opening drawers & doors, Precise punching, kicking, and jumping, Bimanual manipulation tasks Our key innovation: a diffusion prior over human motion that guides RL, eliminating the need for massive teleoperation datasets, and producing motions that look human while transferring to real hardware. Trained purely in simulation, deployed on the Unitree G1 humanoid, DreamControl policies run in real time, bridging sim-to-real with unprecedented naturalness. We leverage a novel hybrid edge + cloud infrastructure that runs RL-trained policies on the edge backed by powerful AI models running in the cloud This is the next step in General Robotics’ journey toward general-purpose humanoid assistants that interact, adapt, and assist autonomously.

DreamCraft3D: Hierarchical 3D Generation with Bootstrapped Diffusion Prior paper page: present DreamCraft3D, a hierarchical 3D content generation method that produces high-fidelity and coherent 3D objects. We tackle the problem by leveraging a 2D reference image to guide the stages of geometry sculpting and texture boosting. A central focus of this work is to address the consistency issue that existing works encounter. To sculpt geometries that render coherently, we perform score distillation sampling via a view-dependent diffusion model. This 3D prior, alongside several training strategies, prioritizes the geometry consistency but compromises the texture fidelity. We further propose Bootstrapped Score Distillation to specifically boost the texture. We train a personalized diffusion model, Dreambooth, on the augmented renderings of the scene, imbuing it with 3D knowledge of the scene being optimized. The score distillation from this 3D-aware diffusion prior provides view-consistent guidance for the scene. Notably, through an alternating optimization of the diffusion prior and 3D scene representation, we achieve mutually reinforcing improvements: the optimized 3D scene aids in training the scene-specific diffusion model, which offers increasingly view-consistent guidance for 3D optimization. The optimization is thus bootstrapped and leads to substantial texture boosting. With tailored 3D priors throughout the hierarchical generation, DreamCraft3D generates coherent 3D objects with photorealistic renderings, advancing the state-of-the-art in 3D content generation.

Robot trained entirely in simulation! 🤯 Sudo AI just released #sudo R1. This could be the moment the data bottleneck in robotics finally breaks, a major step forward for getting simulation-trained robots to actually work in the real world. #sudo R1 is a manipulation foundation model that reliably picks objects it has never seen: glass, fabric, metal, irregular shapes. All with zero real-world training data. No tele-op. No demos. No manual labeling. Pure simulation. And picking isn't just any skill, it's the foundation. Almost everything we want robots to do starts with being able to reliably pick something up. Data collection is the bottleneck holding the whole field back. Every new task means hours of tele-op and armies of labelers. If simulation alone can actually deliver production-grade picking, that bottleneck starts to disappear. Really exciting to see! If the results hold, the path to general-purpose robots just got a whole lot shorter. 👇 Read more here: ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

Synthetic data will provide the next trillion tokens to fuel our hungry models. I'm excited to announce MimicGen: massively scaling up data pipeline for robot learning! We multiply high-quality human data in simulation with digital twins. Using 50,000 training episodes across 18 tasks, multiple simulators, and even in the real-world! The idea is simple: 1. Humans tele-operate the robot to complete a task. It is extremely high-quality but also very slow and expensive. 2. We create a digital twin of the robot and the scene in high-fidelity, GPU-accelerated simulation. 3. We can now move objects around, replace with new assets, and even change the robot hand - basically augment the training data with procedural generation. 4. Export the successful episodes, and feed that to a neural network! You now have an near-infinite stream of data. One of the key reasons that robotics lags far behind other AI fields is the lack of data: you cannot scrape control signals from the internet. They simply don't exist in-the-wild. MimicGen shows the power of synthetic data and simulation to keep our scaling laws alive. I believe this principle apply beyond robotics. We are quickly exhausting the high-quality, real tokens from the web. Artificial intelligence from artificial data will be the way forward. We are big fans of the OSS community. As usual, we open-source everything, including the generated dataset! - Website: - Paper: - Dataset is hosted on HuggingFace (thanks AK!!): - Code: MimicGen is led by Ajay Mandlekar, deep dive in the thread:

We might be solving the wrong problem in robotics. That’s what this makes clear. UMI → Universal Manipulation Interface A simple $400 gripper that lets you teach robots by demonstration. You hold it like a tool. Show the task. The robot learns. No teleoperation. No expensive hardware. No robot-specific data. Stanford open-sourced everything → hardware, code, datasets. What stands out to me is the bottleneck. Not algorithms. Data. Teleoperation → ~35 demos/hour UMI → ~111 demos/hour And the data transfers across robots → UR5, Franka, others. The design is surprisingly practical: → GoPro fisheye lens (155° FOV) + mirrors for depth → SLAM + IMU for precise 6DoF tracking → latency matching for dynamic tasks → diffusion policies for multimodal actions Then it scales. Cheng Chi takes this further with Sunday Robotics (with Tony Zhao). A $200 glove → deployed in 500+ homes → ~10 million real-world interactions. Not lab data. Real human behavior. Their robot learns dishes, laundry, espresso → with zero robot-specific data. This is where the shift becomes obvious. From training robots in controlled environments → to learning directly from humans at scale So here’s the real question: Will robotics be unlocked by better models… or by unlocking data? #ArtificialIntelligence #Robotics #AI #Innovation #FutureOfWork

A big part of scaling robot learning to solve real-world problems is that we somehow need to get enough diverse, high-quality data to train our robots to perform useful things. GPT and its fellow large language models were bootstrapped and proved out on a massive dataset of real-world language data. Unfortunately, despite our best efforts, similarly massive datasets don’t really exist for robotics — so, in our unending pursuit of high-quality, useful data, we turn to simulation. I compared a couple recent works on sim-to-real robot manipulation, which discuss how to train perception-driven manipulation policies in simulation, in such a way that they’re useful in the real world. - DextraH-RGB, from NVIDIA - Sim-and-Real Co-Training: A Simple Recipe for Vision-Based Robotic Manipulation, also from NVIDIA — specifically the GEAR lab - Sim-to-Real Reinforcement Learning for Vision-Based Dexterous Manipulation on Humanoids, another GEAR lab paper - Local Policies Enable Zero-shot Long-Horizon Manipulation, from CMU (video from DextrAH-RGB)

Introducing FLUX-mimic, a next-generation Video-Action Model for general purpose dexterity, developed in partnership with Black Forest Labs. Late last year we published mimic-video and introduced Video-Action Models (VAM): a new family of robotics foundation models built on top of video generation models. We showed that robot control reduces to visual prediction, and that robot capability is downstream of improvements in video modeling accuracy. The obvious implication was that advances in the video modeling frontier would directly translate to increased capabilities in end-to-end robot learning. FLUX-mimic is that thesis at frontier scale: We've applied our VAM architecture to the strongest video backbone available today, FLUX 3 from Black Forest Labs, and trained it on data from our own robots and wearables. General-purpose dexterity, running on a single GPU on premises. Because the model already understands world dynamics, it needs far fewer demonstrations to learn a new task. This is game-changing for our mission to deploy robots to factory floors, where industrial robot data is scarce and expensive to collect. We're now testing and deploying FLUX-mimic with manufacturing leaders like Audi USA, on complex, multi-step manipulation long considered impossible for conventional automation.

Excited to announce GR00T N1, the world’s first open foundation model for humanoid robots! We are on a mission to democratize Physical AI. The power of general robot brain, in the palm of your hand - with only 2B parameters, N1 learns from the most diverse physical action dataset ever compiled and punches above its weight: - Real humanoid teleoperation data. - Large-scale simulation data: we are open-sourcing 300K+ trajectories! - Neural trajectories: we apply SOTA video generation models to “hallucinate” new synthetic data that features accurate physics in pixels. Using Jensen’s words, “systematically infinite data”! - Latent actions: we develop novel algorithms to extract action tokens from in-the-wild human videos and neural generated videos. GR00T N1 is a single end-to-end neural net, from photons to actions: - Vision-Language Model (System 2) that interprets the physical world through vision and language instructions, enabling robots to reason about their environment and instructions, and plan the right actions. - Diffusion Transformer (System 1) that “renders” smooth and precise motor actions at 120 Hz, executing the latent plan made by System 2. We deploy N1 on GR1 robot, 1X Neo robot, and a large collection of simulation benchmarks. N1 achieves up to +30% boost in diverse manipulation tasks for household and industrial settings. While humanoid robots are the main focus of N1, our model also supports cross-embodiment. We finetune it to work on the $110 HuggingFace LeRobot SO100 robot arm! Open robot brain runs on open hardware. Sounds just right. Let’s solve robotics, together, one token at a time. Links to our Whitepaper, Github repo, HuggingFace model, and open dataset page in the thread: 🧵

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.

💥 A 450M model just beat bigger VLAs on real robot tasks, and it’s 100% open source [📍 bookmark for later] Came across SmolVLA, a new vision-language-action model for robotics that’s compact, fast, and trained entirely on open community datasets from LeRobot via Hugging Face. What stood out to me is how it matches or outperforms much larger models like ACT using noisy, real-world community data instead of giant private datasets. Why it’s worth a look ✅ 26% performance boost from pretraining on open-source data ✅ Runs on consumer hardware, even a MacBook ✅ 30% faster responses with async inference and smart architecture tweaks ✅ Strong results across Meta-World, LIBERO, SO100, and SO101 ✅ Fully open source: weights, code, training pipeline, eval stack They also introduced smart efficiency tricks like using fewer visual tokens, pulling outputs from mid-layer, and separating perception from action to make it all run fast. SmolVLA is a strong case for what can happen when the robotics community shares data and builds in the open. Definitely worth keeping an eye on.

Tired of teleoperation? One human video → 1,000s of robot demos. (📍GitHub ) Scaling Robot Data Without Dynamics Simulation or Robot Hardware Real2Render2Real (R2R2R) is a new way to scale robot data without physics simulation or hardware. You take a phone scan + a single monocular human demo. It tracks the motion, renders photorealistic scenes, and generates diverse, robot-agnostic trajectories ready for training. > No teleop, no sim, no robot, just a phone and a video > Train VLA models and diffusion policies directly on the output > Supports multiple robot embodiments with kinematic consistency > 1000s of demos in 1/27 the time of real-world collection Thank you, Max Fu, for sharing!! Project: Paper: Code coming soon: It shows that with the right pipeline, you can scale robot learning data without touching a robot. One of the most interesting directions in scalable robotics today. —— Weekly robotics and AI insights. Subscribe free:

NVIDIA just announced EgoScale 🤖🧠 NVIDIA Research has uncovered a log-linear scaling law for robot dexterity by pretraining VLA models on over 20,000 hours of egocentric human video This massive dataset is 20 times larger than previous efforts and proves that robot intelligence follows a predictable path: the more human data, the lower the loss The secret is a simple recipe combining large-scale human pretraining with a small amount of aligned human-robot mid-training to bridge the gap In testing, this method boosted the average success rate by 54% on a 22-DoF robotic hand compared to policies built without pretraining EgoScale also enables one-shot task adaptation and works across different hardware, suggesting that human motion is a universal motor prior for robots Website: Paper: Source: NVIDIA Research #Robot #Humanoid #Robotics #AI #EmbodiedAI #PhysicalAI #NVIDIA #EgoScale #GR00T

I don’t know if we live in a Matrix, but I know for sure that robots will spend most of their lives in simulation. Let machines train machines. I’m excited to introduce DexMimicGen, a massive-scale synthetic data generator that enables a humanoid robot to learn complex skills from only a handful of human demonstrations. Yes, as few as 5! DexMimicGen addresses the biggest pain point in robotics: where do we get data? Unlike with LLMs, where vast amounts of texts are readily available, you cannot simply download motor control signals from the internet. So researchers teleoperate the robots to collect motion data via XR headsets. They have to repeat the same skill over and over and over again, because neural nets are data hungry. This is a very slow and uncomfortable process. At NVIDIA, we believe the majority of high-quality tokens for robot foundation models will come from simulation. What DexMimicGen does is to trade GPU compute time for human time. It takes one motion trajectory from human, and multiplies into 1000s of new trajectories. A robot brain trained on this augmented dataset will generalize far better in the real world. Think of DexMimicGen as a learning signal amplifier. It maps a small dataset to a large (de facto infinite) dataset, using physics simulation in the loop. In this way, we free humans from babysitting the bots all day. The future of robot data is generative. The future of the entire robot learning pipeline will also be generative. 🧵

Co-training has become a key part of the recipe for training large robotics models; it means that you mix some proportion of real robot data with other data sources, like simulation or egocentric human video data. This is especially important because robotics data tends to lack diversity which can be somewhat compensated for by the inclusion of these other modalities. And yet there has not been a sizable study on what constitute good practices for cotraining until now! We talk to Fanqi Lin and Jose Barreiros about their new work, a massive study which evaluated 89 policies over thousands of rollouts to tell us which forms of co-training were most useful for robotics.
