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.
Dream4D is a new framework for generating spatiotemporally coherent 4D content. It uses a two‑stage pipeline: first, few‑shot learning predicts optimal camera trajectories from a single image; second, a pose‑conditioned diffusion process creates geometrically consistent multi‑view sequences that are converted into a persistent 4D representation. The method uniquely combines rich temporal priors from video diffusion models with geometric awareness from reconstruction models, achieving higher quality metrics such as mPSNR and mSSIM compared to existing approaches.

Image-goal visual navigation is a fundamental capability for embodied agents. Existing navigation policies efficiently predict waypoint trajectories but lack visual foresight, while navigation world models can anticipate future observations but often require costly planning rollouts.
