Researchers have introduced Uruqi, a novel approach to enhance spatial cognition in vision-language models (VLMs). This method synthesizes extensive visual experience data, mimicking an agent's continuous movement and observation to improve self-motion tracking and world mapping capabilities. By training on this synthesized data, models like URUQI-Syn-8B have shown significant accuracy improvements on spatial benchmarks, approaching the performance of advanced models such as GPT-6 Astra.
