Real-world spatial intelligence requires agents to understand scenes from continuous video streams, where objects move, persist, disappear, and reappear over time. While recent spatial foundation models have enabled generalizable feed-forward 3D reconstruction, most streaming methods remain geometry-centric and lack temporally consistent object-level understanding.
SAM‑V is a geometry‑aware extension of the Segment Anything Model (SAM) that integrates 3D priors from a feed‑forward geometry model (VGGT) into 2D segmentation. It uses a prompt‑fusion mechanism to combine sparse SAM prompts with view‑specific camera tokens and local VGGT features, enabling a mask decoder that attends to both dense 2D and 3D cues. The resulting end‑to‑end system produces consistent multi‑view instance segmentation in a single forward pass, achieving significant gains on the IGGT 3D tracking benchmark without offline mask matching or explicit 3D reconstruction.

MessyKitchens introduces a new dataset of cluttered real-world kitchen scenes with detailed 3D object shapes, poses, and accurate contact information. The authors extend the SAM 3D single-object reconstruction method with a Multi-Object Decoder (MOD) to jointly reconstruct entire scenes, achieving better registration accuracy and reduced inter-object penetration compared to prior work. The dataset, benchmark, code, and pretrained models will be publicly released on the project website.
