One image + text + camera trajectory = controllable worlds. All on a single GPU. Our research team just released SANA-WM, a 2.6B open source world model natively trained for 60-second video generation with precise camera control.

The architecture features Hybrid Linear Attention, Dual-Branch Camera Control, Two-Stage Generation Pipeline, and a Robust Annotation Pipeline. All of this combines for stronger action-following accuracy and higher throughput while maintaining visual quality.

this sounds super cool! creating worlds with just a single gpu is a game changer. can't wait to see what people do with SANA-WM!

60 seconds of video. One image to start. One GPU to run it. Open source. The game engine just became a prompt.

Looks great. Can you link the paper and repo, name training data sources/licenses, and state the exact GPU/VRAM for the single GPU claim? That would let others reproduce the camera control results.

2.6B for 60-second world-consistent video with camera control is a wild benchmark. The open-source release is what makes this actually useful — most teams don't need Hollywood quality, they need something they can run and fine-tune. What hardware are people actually running inference on?

You're on the right track Nvidia, but please make it more performant and keep training. Go full send on compute for training.

Looking very soulless, generic and not worth it!

Can it run on a 4090?

One image + text + trajectory = controllable worlds on a single GPU. Simulation is becoming cheap and precise.

bbox queen looks clean, seedance 2 with gpt image 2, huh? got a side by side without seedance to compare?

"single GPU" is the part that changes everything here. world models for video have always felt like a data center problem, shrinking that down to one GPU opens this up to a completely different audience

SANA-WM is concrete enough to test. One image, text, camera path, and single GPU are the setup. Control drift is the receipt.

2.6B for 60-second generation is compelling if SANA-WM keeps temporal drift under control.

Which GPU, and how much VRAM?

Hey @NVIDIAAIDev — got SANA-WM running on one H100. "Single GPU" holds at runtime, but the install path is rough: HF repo has no model_index.json, real setup needs vendoring the feat/sana-wm PR branch + mmcv 1.7.2 + flash-attn stub. Any chance of an official quickstart? 🙏

One image plus text plus camera trajectory and you get a controllable world. That formula is deceptively simple for what it produces

Finally a world model that doesn’t require a datacenter to test your camera moves

NVIDIA just unleashed SANA-WM and it’s an absolute MONSTER for the future of open source AI! A blazing-fast 2.6B-parameter open-source world model that doesn’t just generate video… it creates controllable, physics-rich, high-fidelity worlds on demand. Why this is insanely powerful: • One image + text prompt + 6-DoF camera trajectory → generates 720p videos up to 60 seconds long with buttery-smooth, precisely controlled camera movement. You’re not just watching, you’re piloting the simulation. • Runs locally on a single consumer GPU (RTX 5090 level) thanks to heavy distillation + NVFP4 quantization. Full 60-second clip denoised in ~34 seconds. No massive clusters required. • 36× higher throughput than previous open models while rivaling (or beating) closed industrial giants in visual quality and consistency. • Trained lightning-fast: ~213K public videos in just 15 days on 64 H100s. • Built with next-level tech: Hybrid Linear Attention, dual-branch camera control, two-stage pipeline, and rock-solid metric-scale pose understanding. This is a true open world model, the foundation for embodied AI, robotics, autonomous systems, and hyper-realistic simulations that can run anywhere. Project: At our Zero-Human Company, we’re already running SANA-WM live in our core pipelines. It’s supercharging autonomous agent training, generating unlimited synthetic training data, and powering full end-to-end simulation loops, zero humans in the loop. The speed and control let us test thousands of edge-case scenarios overnight, iterate at lightspeed, and push our fully autonomous operations further than ever before. This is the kind of breakthrough that turns science fiction into daily reality. World models just leveled up — hard. The age of personal, local, controllable universes is here.
