CueNav is a video model-based navigation framework that uses visual cues—a Bird's-Eye View map for global task context and a body-aware egocentric view for embodiment context—to guide a video planner. The framework couples this planner with an embodiment-specific Inverse-Dynamics Model that translates dense flow fields from the video plan into robot actions. Experiments show that CueNav nearly doubles maze navigation success compared to cue-less planning and achieves 70% success in narrow passages, while also supporting zero-shot semantic-conditioned navigation across different robot platforms.
