TL;DR

NeoWorld-Pro is proposed, a framework that reformulates monocular scene reconstruction as procedural programming for interactive 3D environments and outperforms open-loop and prior monocular reconstruction methods, while enabling complex downstream tasks such as stable stacking and fine-grained manipulation.

Abstract

The advancement of Embodied AI necessitates high-quality simulation assets that faithfully mirror the real world. However, transforming raw visual observations into simulation-ready scenes remains challenging due to the lack of physical grounding and scene-level interactivity in current image-to-URDF methods. We propose NeoWorld-Pro, a framework that reformulates monocular scene reconstruction as procedural programming for interactive 3D environments. Leveraging the zero-shot reasoning and code synthesis capabilities of MLLMs, NeoWorld-Pro converts a single RGB image into executable programs specifying object geometry, articulation, and physical properties. A physics-in-the-loop mechanism then iteratively refines the generated programs by validating their execution in a physics engine, enforcing physically plausible articulations, valid object compositions and interactions, and accurate spatial relationships. Experiments show that NeoWorld-Pro outperforms open-loop and prior monocular reconstruction methods, while enabling complex downstream tasks such as stable stacking and fine-grained manipulation.
