Embodied AI is shifting the focus of computer vision research, moving from understanding static images to enabling intelligent agents to interact with and manipulate the real world. This paradigm shift, evident at CVPR 2026, redefines computer vision's value by requiring systems not only to see but also to act and learn from feedback. The evolution from proving existence to scaling capabilities has made vision a foundational infrastructure for physical intelligence, changing how problems are defined, evaluated, and solved within the field.
