New pipeline generates infinite 3D worlds from single panoramas

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed Genie Sim PanoWorld, a novel pipeline for generating infinite indoor 3D worlds from a single panoramic image. This system bypasses the need for per-scene optimization or multi-view capture, addressing limitations in existing methods regarding metric trajectory control and handling large disocclusions. The pipeline uses a two-stage approach, first generating a trajectory-controllable panoramic video via a latent video diffusion model and then reconstructing this video into a high-fidelity 3D Gaussian scene. This output is directly usable for embodied AI applications, demonstrating superior performance in both video generation and downstream 3D reconstruction compared to geometry-conditioned baselines.

    Genie Sim PanoWorld: An Infinite Indoor 3D World Generation Pipeline via Panoramic Scene Modeling and Simulation

    arXiv:2607.26646v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We address the problem of reconstructing a high-fidelity, freely navigable 3D scene from a single $360^\circ$ panorama, without per-scene optimization or multi-view capture. Existing methods either lack metric trajectory control, wh…
