Zhejiang University researcher shifts from 3D vision to embodied AI

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Peng Sida, a researcher at Zhejiang University, has transitioned from developing dynamic 3D human reconstruction and volumetric video technologies to focusing on embodied intelligence and robotics. His earlier work, including "Neural Body" and "4K4D," significantly advanced real-time rendering and compression for dynamic scenes, leading to the spin-off company 4DV.ai. Peng now believes that while vision is important, text and action modalities are more crucial for true intelligence and robotic manipulation, advocating for an agent-based approach with large multimodal models for planning and smaller models for execution.

IMPACT Shifts focus from pure vision to multimodal reasoning and action for embodied AI, potentially influencing future robotic development.
