Real-to-sim conversion for robotic interaction with objects remains labor-intensive because it requires more than visual reconstruction: a streamlined real2sim process must recover scene geometries and object states, infer physical parameters, and assemble actors, objects, cameras, poses, and trajectories into a runnable physical simulation. Today this process still depends on manual tuning of visual foundation models, mesh cleanup, coordinate-frame alignment, and brittle workflow glue across visual perception tools and simulators.

arXiv:2608. 16556v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Across a Physical AI stack, evaluation maturity is inversely aligned with deployment risk: foundation models enjoy mature, standardized harnesses, while the embodied layers on which deployment actually turns remain fragmented across benchmark-specific simulators, embodiments, and interfaces.

AntiGrounding is a visual action-selection framework that turns short robot trajectories into both executable motion plans and rendered prompts for vision‑language model evaluation. After filtering for feasibility, each trajectory is scored on safety, task alignment, efficiency, and physical plausibility using structured multi‑view visual question answering, and the best trajectories are refined and validated by a digital twin before real‑world execution. In eight real‑world manipulation tasks, the system achieved a 71.25% success rate with a single GPT‑6 Astra evaluator, outperforming baseline methods.
arXiv:2606. 16202v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Humans naturally understand object physics through everyday interactions, but faithfully predicting complex deformable dynamics, such as elastic materials and fabrics, remains a major challenge for computer vision and robotics.
Reconstructing dynamic and interactive 3D scenes from real-world observations remains a fundamental challenge in computer vision and robotics. While recent advances in 3D Gaussian Splatting have enabled high-fidelity static reconstruction, extending it to interactive environments with articulated robots and manipulable objects remains difficult due to complex contact interactions and abrupt pose changes.
RoboPhys-3D is a 3D‑grounded embodied world model benchmark built on RoboTwin 2.0, featuring 50 manipulation tasks, 5,000 episodes, and 25,000 multi‑view ground‑truth videos. It evaluates video world models by processing both generated and ground‑truth videos through the same 3D reconstruction pipeline, allowing the separation of reconstruction‑induced from generation‑induced errors. The benchmark defines 50 metrics across four sub‑dimensions—pixel fidelity, 3D geometry consistency, state understanding, and task completeness—and introduces the Average Full Score and RoboPhyscore for holistic assessment, with RoboPhyscore showing strong correlation with human judgments.
