Have you ever seen a robot walk along a waterfront, understand its surroundings, and look out at the sea? 🤖 Thanks to Over the Reality, this is possible. Places like this are mapped every day by our global community of 360 mappers. Using our technology, they are transformed into high-fidelity machine-readable 3D Gaussian Splats. This data can be used to: • navigate robots through the physical world • train AI and Visual Models • power VPS localization • anchor persistent XR content to real-world locations This is just one of more than 250,000 real-world locations already mapped by the Over the Reality community. And unlike traditional datasets, these places can be explored directly through a smartphone, browser, or XR headset, allowing anyone to navigate and experience them in first person. From city streets and waterfronts to landmarks and cultural sites, we're building one of the world's largest machine-readable maps for AI, robotics, and spatial computing.

Excited to share this demo from Over the Reality! Watch our Unitree Go2 robodog navigating our office while reconstructing the 3D space in real-time using the VGGT-based foundation vision model. This is a prime example of machine perception in action, turning raw RGB camera feeds into rich, detailed 3D maps! The robodog's RGB cam generates a dense, textured 3D reconstruction via VGGT from a few photograms, capturing nuances like object shapes and surfaces with impressive fidelity (main view). Compare that to the standard LiDAR system (top right), it's sparser, more point-cloud focused, lacking the visual richness. Vision models are closing the gap fast! What's powering this? VGGT, a cutting-edge foundation model for 3D perception, trained on datasets orders of magnitude smaller than our massive OVER 3D maps dataset. Imagine the leap when we apply OVER's scale to VGGT-like transformer based architectures, denser reconstructions, better generalization, revolutionary for robotics, machine perception & AR! Stay tuned for more breakthroughs at the intersection of AI, robotics, and DePIN. We're building the future of Physical AI and Spatial Computing at Over the Reality 🌐 What do you think, ready for robodogs in your world? Drop your thoughts! 🤖🌐

Dr. Fei-Fei Li just called out the biggest blind spot in the entire AI industry. We have been building half of human intelligence. And calling it the finish line. Li: “If you look at human intelligence, it pretty much boils down to two buckets.” The first bucket is language. Symbolic reasoning. Communication. The ability to think in words and abstractions. That’s what every major AI lab has spent the last decade building. The second bucket is the one the industry has almost entirely ignored. Li: “We call that in AI spatial intelligence.” How humans and animals perceive, navigate, and interact with the three-dimensional physical world. How we reach for objects. How we move through space. How we build and manipulate physical reality. From painting masterpieces to constructing the pyramids, non-verbal spatial intelligence is what actually shapes the world. Language describes reality. Spatial intelligence acts on it. And the gap between those two things is the gap between a chatbot and a robot. Li: “When this technology is ready, the robotic revolution is gonna start. We’re already seeing that trend.” Every robot is a moving agent. Every moving agent requires spatial intelligence to function in the real world. The humanoid robots being deployed in factories right now are hitting the ceiling of what language models alone can power. Spatial intelligence is the unlock. But Li didn’t stop at robotics. Li: “From a geopolitics point of view, this is part of the technology that goes straight into weapons.” Autonomous drone swarms. Battlefield navigation. Physical target acquisition without human oversight. Every military application of AI that operates in the real world runs on spatial intelligence. The nation that masters the transition from static text to dynamic three-dimensional perception doesn’t just win the software race. It commands the physical battlefield. The AI arms race just broke out of the data center. It’s operating in three dimensions now.

📢 Announcing one of the most exciting works from us this year on **scalable robot policy evaluation through real-to-sim transfer**, moving toward a scalable evaluation engine with structured world models that capture the appearance, geometry, and dynamics of environments involving deformable objects. 🤖 Evaluation remains one of the biggest bottlenecks in building general-purpose robots. Today, robots are still evaluated only in the real world, which is **orders of magnitude slower** than the development of language agents. We propose a new framework where simulation performance **strongly correlates** with the real world (r > 0.9), even for deformable objects. The key difference from existing work lies in the correlation between simulation and reality: if a robot model performs better in the digital world, does it also perform better in the real world? This question has long made people hesitant about simulation-based evaluation — especially for deformable objects. We are changing that. Our pipeline achieves effective real-to-sim transfer, establishing **state-of-the-art correlation** between simulation and reality for deformable object manipulation. It provides a **scalable and reproducible evaluation engine** for 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!

A new member joins the European humanoid robot team. German company Agile Robotics has launched its first industrial humanoid robot, Agile One, featuring intuitive human-robot interaction, dexterous hands (for grasping small screws and touching the screen), and AI-driven operation trained in the real world. It performs tasks such as material collection, handling, picking and placing, loading and unloading machine tools, tool handling, and precision operations. The emergence of humanoid robots by industrial robot companies is a natural progression; they are designed for areas inaccessible to traditional robotic arms and industrial robots, extending operational systems and enhancing business collaboration capabilities. Agile One will be manufactured in Germany in early 2026 and deployed for on-site training at customers to enhance its AI model capabilities. Soon, Europe will enter its second wave of automation driven by intelligent technology.
