3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) can reconstruct a captured scene photorealistically, but the resulting representation does not by itself support physical interaction. Robot simulation instead requires ob...

Habitat-GS is a navigation-focused embodied AI simulator that extends Habitat‑Sim by incorporating 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) for real‑time photorealistic rendering and scalable asset import. It introduces a Gaussian avatar module that represents dynamic humans as both photorealistic visual entities and navigation obstacles, enabling agents to learn human‑aware behaviors. Experiments show that agents trained on 3DGS scenes generalize better across domains and that the avatar system supports effective human‑aware navigation while maintaining system scalability.

The paper introduces the Neverwhere Visual Parkour Benchmark Suite, a collection of over sixty hyper‑photo‑realistic 3D Gaussian Splatting reconstructions of urban indoor and outdoor scenes designed to evaluate visual locomotion controllers in closed‑loop, continuous testing setups. It aims to bridge the gap between training and real‑world evaluation by providing reproducible environments and policy checkpoints trained across multiple scenes, while highlighting the risks of relying solely on 3D Gaussian‑generated data. The authors offer code and data on their project page for easy integration into robotic evaluation pipelines.

WorldSculpt presents a method for generating compositional 3D representations of cluttered scenes with hundreds of objects by adapting a single-object 3D generative prior to multi-view observations. The approach, built on Pixal3D with a multi-view conditioning pathway, can generalize to highly occluded scenes without scene-level training. The authors also introduce the UE-MeshyScene benchmark and demonstrate that their method outperforms prior approaches across various evaluation settings, including converting existing 3DGS worlds into compositional mesh scenes.
