ReViV is the first unified framework for holistic egocentric 4D reconstruction that extracts both viewer and view dynamics from a single monocular RGB video and achieves state-of-the-art accuracy and efficiency across holistic ego-body, hand, and gaze reconstruction, camera tracking, while maintaining highly competitive egocentric depth estimation.
Abstract
Egocentric devices, such as wearable front-facing cameras, provide a unique perspective for capturing the continuous interaction between a human viewer and the surrounding environment. A holistic and efficient multimodal model capable of reconstructing this 4D representation is therefore highly desirable. However, existing approaches often rely on auxiliary inputs such as pre-computed camera trajectories, treat scene perception and human ego-motion modeling as separate problems despite their strong interdependency, and suffer from slow inference time. To address these limitations, we present ReViV, the first unified framework for holistic egocentric 4D reconstruction that extracts both viewer and view dynamics from a single monocular RGB video. We formulate the task as learning the full joint probability distribution over multimodal signals, including RGB video, camera trajectory, gaze direction, full-body motion, hand motion, and depth. Powered by a Masked Generative Egocentric Transformer, ReViV operates within a single feed-forward architecture to simultaneously reconstruct the temporally consistent 4D reconstruction across the viewer and the view with fast inference speed. Extensive experiments on diverse benchmarks, including HoloAssist, HOT3D, ARCTIC, Aria Digital Twin, and TACO, demonstrate that ReViV achieves state-of-the-art accuracy and efficiency across holistic ego-body, hand, and gaze reconstruction, camera tracking, while maintaining highly competitive egocentric depth estimation without relying on heavy task-specific priors. Code and models are fully open-sourced: https://reviv4d.github.io/.
Complete 3D perception from egocentric video requires recovering the surrounding scene and the wearer's full-body motion in a shared metric frame. Existing methods typically address scene reconstruction and motion estimation separately: scene reconstruction methods ignore the wearer, whereas motion estimation methods lack explicit scene geometry and often depend on external trajectories. Joint recovery is challenging because the two tasks exhibit asymmetric visibility and require different prediction paradigms. The largely visible scene supports deterministic geometric regression, whereas the severely occluded body requires generative motion inference. We therefore propose RESELF (REconstructing the Scene and the sELF), a unified framework that couples deterministic metric geometry reconstruction with geometry-conditioned motion generation. RESELF adapts a geometry foundation model pre-trained on large-scale exocentric data to egocentric video using frame-wise scale and relative-pose consistency objectives. The resulting camera trajectory and latent geometric features condition a diffusion model that recovers the wearer's motion. A subsequent closed-loop kinematic feedback stage further refines the camera head while preserving the reconstructed scene geometry. To support training and evaluation, we curate EE4D-JSM from EgoExo4D by aligning egocentric video, sparse metric scene geometry, camera trajectories, and full-body motion annotations. Experiments show that RESELF outperforms state-of-the-art methods designed for the individual tasks across depth estimation, camera tracking, and full-body motion estimation. Code, models, and datasets will be available at https://ka1guan.github.io/RESELF/.

Egocentric video offers scalable manipulation data for embodied AI, yet recovering metric 3D hand trajectories remains challenging due to severe object occlusion and frequent out-of-sight gaps. Existing single-frame and windowed temporal regressors fail when a hand shortly leaves the frame, while recent video diffusion models (VDMs) rely on heavy, stochastic multi-step sampling as pixel-space renderers. We instead repurpose VDM into a deterministic geometry encoder. A single forward pass over the clean latent exposes scene content beyond current observations, including occluded and out-of-sight hands. We introduce ACE-Ego-Hand, an offline clip-level framework that extracts features via a Deterministic Clean-Latent Encoder and decodes them with a Bidirectional Spatiotemporal Decoder. ACE-Ego-Hand recovers continuous bimanual trajectories with metric placement and no external detector, while a Ray-Based Camera Solver supports a second configuration that requires no test-time camera intrinsics. Across five egocentric benchmarks, ACE-Ego-Hand sets a new state of the art, cutting MPJPE-p by 30% on occlusion-heavy ARCTIC and 40% on HOT3D. These gains reach 46%-61% once out-of-sight hands are included in the evaluation, offering a scalable path from everyday human video to robot manipulation data.

DiGS-Avatar is proposed, which reformulates this task as an efficient, diffusion-based UV-latent completion task, ensuring 3D consistency by design, and introduces a teacher-student framework where a multi-view teacher provides geometrically aligned pseudo-ground-truth latents to supervise a single-view diffusion student.
Recent generative image-editing Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) demonstrate impressive semantic editing capabilities but still struggle with spatially consistent camera angle changes. A primary bottleneck in training foundation models to execute free-form, promptable camera angle changes is the lack of specialized training data. While multi-view datasets exist for generic 3D environments and objects, there remains an absence of paired, multi-view datasets featuring human subjects at fixed locations in natural scenes, including frontal and side-profile views. Capturing such multi-camera data in unconstrained environments is logistically challenging and unscalable. In this paper, we first experiment with multiple state-of-the-art image editing models to create this data synthetically, but find that the outputs are frequently prone to hallucinations involving how much the subject's head turns relative to the background, often producing inconsistent environments. To address this issue, we propose the Head Scene Rotation Difference (HSRD) metric to quantitatively evaluate camera movements around a person. The proposed metric operates by decoupling camera movement from localized head pose manipulation. As demonstrated by the extensive experimentation, HSRD provides the pipeline necessary to evaluate 3D spatial parallax for a person in a scene, paving the way to reliably construct high-quality multi-view synthetic datasets.
Recovering camera and hand motion in world coordinates from egocentric video is a key capability for activity understanding, robot learning, and augmented reality. Existing systems typically decompose this problem into separate stages for camera motion, depth estimation, hand reconstruction, and trajectory refinement, resulting in substantial computational overhead and preventing the joint modeling of camera and hand motion. We introduce MINT (Minting IN-the-Wild Trajectories), a foundation model for world-space hand motion reconstruction from ego-centric RGB video. From a single shared spatiotemporal video representation, MINT jointly predicts the camera trajectory, field of view (FoV), camera-frame hand states, and per-frame hand observability, and then produces world-space hand motion via explicit coordinate transformations. Training such a model at scale is challenging, since paired world-space camera and hand annotations are scarce. We therefore develop an open-source labeling EGOPIPELINE that converts large collections of public egocentric videos into structured camera-and-hand trajectory supervision. MINT is first pretrained on these large-scale pseudo-labels and then fine-tuned on a small set of high-quality camera-and-hand annotations. Across public benchmarks MINT approaches state-of-the-art accuracy without seeing either benchmark in training, reaching 0.945 frame accuracy, 13.646 mm PA-MPJPE-p and 55.058 px EPE-p for camera-frame bimanual reconstruction on HOT3D, 4.690 mm RPE-T and 0.284 degrees RPE-R for camera trajectory, and a 3.67x end-to-end speedup over the labeling pipeline that supervises it. We release the model, training and inference code, labeling pipeline, and a curated 1,021-hour egocentric trajectory dataset.
