• Abstract: Recent advances in imitation learning have shown significant promise for robotic control and embodied intelligence. However, achieving robust generalization across diverse mounted camera observations remains a critical challenge. In this paper, we introduce a video-based spatial perception framework that leverages 3D spatial representations to address environmental variability, with a focus on handling lighting changes. Our approach integrates a novel image augmentation technique, AugBlender, with a state-of-the-art monocular depth estimation model trained on internet-scale data. Together, these components form a cohesive system designed to enhance robustness and adaptability in dynamic scenarios. Our results demonstrate that our approach significantly boosts the success rate across diverse camera exposures, where previous models experience performance collapse. Our findings highlight the potential of video-based spatial perception models in advancing robustness for end-to-end robotic learning, paving the way for scalable, low-cost solutions in embodied intelligence.

  We propose Dynamic World Simulation (DWS) to transform pre-trained video generative models into controllable world simulators. To achieve precise alignment between conditioned actions and generated visual changes, we introduce a lightweight, universal action-conditioned module. Experiments demonstrate that DWS can be versatilely applied to both diffusion and autoregressive transformer models.

  We study how to learn world models in unconstrained environments over high-dimensional observation spaces such as images.

This simple model leads to surprisingly robust robotic control even with simultaneous camera, background, and color distractions.
