Excited to share the first paper of my PhD: MP-SfM! #CVPR2025 We augment SfM with monocular depth & normals to handle extreme low-overlap scenes. 🚀 Code: github.com/cvg/mpsfm 📄 Paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2504.20040 Exciting collaboration with Paul-Edouard Sarlin @pesarlin.bsky.social, J.L. Schönberger & Marc Pollefeys

Tired of teleoperating your robots? We built a way to scale robot datasets without teleop, dynamic simulation, or even robot hardware. Just one smartphone scan + one human hand demo video → thousands of diverse robot trajectories. Trainable by diffusion policy and VLA models

🚀🚀🚀Announcing our $13M funding round to build the next generation of AI: 𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐬 that can generate entire 3D environments anchored in space & time. 🚀🚀🚀 Interested? Join our world-class team: 🌍 spaitial.ai #GenAI #3DAI

📢📢𝐁𝐈𝐆 𝐍𝐄𝐖𝐒: 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐞𝐱𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐒𝐩𝐀𝐈𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐀𝐈 📢📢 We’re building Spatial Foundation Models — a new paradigm of generative AI that reasons about space and time! Really stoked about our world-class team – it’s gonna be mind-boggling!

Open Sourcing Forge: 3D Gaussian splat rendering for web developers! 3DGS has become a dominant paradigm for differentiable rendering, combining high visual quality and real-time rendering. However, support for splatting on the web still lags behind its adoption in AI.

You can find full source code, examples, documentation, and more at forge.dev. We can’t wait to see what you’ll build!

Instead of relying on Gaussians or neural networks, we go back to basics, 𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦𝘴, the most efficient and GPU-friendly 3D primitive. The merge between traditional graphics pipelines & hardware, and state-of-the-art in 3D reconstruction is finally in sight ! 2/n

Discover the right 3D Geometric Foundation Model for your task—whether it’s stereo matching, multi-view depth estimation, video depth, pose estimation, semantic understanding, or novel view synthesis. Explore more insights in our #E3DBench #FoundationModel #3D #GaussianSplatting.

Visual Geometry Group (VGG) Jianyuan Minghao Chen Nikita Karaev David Novotny #CVPR2025 congrats, well deserved!

Key to research success: ambition in vision, but pragmatism in execution. You must be guided by a long-term, ambitious goal that addresses a fundamental problem, rather than chasing incremental gains on established benchmarks. Yet, your progress should be grounded by tractable

Our workshop OpenSUN3D heads to  #ICCV2025 in Hawaii! 🌺 Working on open‑vocabulary 3D scene understanding? Our paper track is now open! Deadlines: ⏰Full papers (in proceedings): July 4 🗓️Extended abstracts and non-archival papers: Sept 1 🔗 opensun3d.github.io

Understanding Reinforcement Learning (RL) A long thread 🧵

Great talk by Andrew Davison on the journey from SLAM to Spatial AI at #ICVSS2025! A compelling argument for the power of dynamic, updatable 3D representations and their direct impact on the future of robotics and wearable devices. And nice insights for spatial AI researchers!

I like people who make things and share them

How can we leverage diverse human videos to improve robot manipulation? Excited to introduce EgoVLA — a Vision-Language-Action model trained on egocentric human videos by explicitly modeling wrist & hand motion. We build a shared action space between humans and robots, enabling

I have turn one chapter of my thesis work into a blogspot, if you want to learn Gaussian Splatting and really delve into the fine details and the maths, I think this is a great option, I have put a lot of effort, I hope you enjoy it! medium.com/p/2d-gaussian-…
