4DSynth is a controllable procedural system that transforms natural-language descriptions, blueprint masks, or single photographs into editable 4D environments featuring explicit geometry, animated actors, collision-free trajectories, and physics-ready simulation states. The system unifies animation, camera planning, rendering, and task generation within a single geometry-grounded representation, enabling scalable creation of dynamic embodied simulation scenes. Using 4DSynth, the authors built 4DSynth-Nav, an interactive navigation benchmark that demonstrates the reproducibility and tunability of procedural failures across vision‑language models.

LLM agents are increasingly used to translate natural language into 3D scenes in a procedural way, but existing systems focus on static output. Dynamic 4D scenes from text alone, in which liquids flow, particles emit, rigid bodies cascade, and articulated mechanisms move, remain largely unexplored despite their value as editable content and as physics-grounded training data for video generation and embodied AI.

The system unifies animation, camera planning, rendering, and task generation within a single geometry-grounded representation, enabling scalable creation of diverse, interactive scenes. Using 4DSynth, the authors built 4DSynth-Nav, an interactive navigation benchmark that demonstrates the reproducibility of failures and tunable difficulty across three tiers for vision‑language models.
Interactive simulators have become powerful tools for training embodied agents and generating synthetic visual data, but existing photorealistic simulators suffer from limited generality, programmability, and rendering speed. We address these limitations by introducing SPEAR: A Simulator for Photorealistic Embodied AI Research.
