World models offer a promising route toward robot planning by enabling agents to imagine and verify the consequences of actions before execution. However, current video-based world models often struggle to capture the physical constraints that govern manipulation, particularly contact.
arXiv:2607. 00033v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dexterous robot manipulation can benefit from the abundance of human demonstrations, but transferring such demonstrations to robot policies remains challenging.

HumanEgo is a framework that enables zero‑shot robot learning from short egocentric human videos by converting each demonstration into an entity‑level hand‑object interaction representation and training a flow‑matching policy with dense auxiliary objectives. The method is robot‑data‑free, hardware‑agnostic, and data‑efficient, achieving 92.5 % success on four real‑world tasks with only 30 minutes of human video per task and outperforming matched‑time robot teleoperation by 41 %. HumanEgo also robustly transfers zero‑shot across new robots, cameras, and environments, and is released as an open‑source tool for learning robot policies directly from human data.
