Abstract

We present LiteReality-Agent, an agentic system for reconstructing real indoor environments as realistic, articulated, and simulation-ready 3D scenes from RGB-D scans. At its core, LiteReality-Agent formulates 3D reconstruction as a coding problem, in which a coding agent gathers evidence using specialised tools and iteratively edits a Python script, Room.py, which can be executed to produce a 3D digital twin of the room. With this formulation, we develop a robust observe-edit-verify harness that supports evidence gathering, measurement, verification, layout optimisation, simulation readiness, and quality control throughout the reconstruction process. LiteReality-Agent produces high-quality reconstructions suitable for simulation and downstream embodied AI tasks. Furthermore, as agent capabilities continue to improve rapidly, the system introduced by LiteReality-Agent remains a strong orchestration framework for future agents: it equips them with specialised tools, structured workflows, and robust verification mechanisms that substantially improve reconstruction quality and reliability. We demonstrate that LiteReality-Agent produces reconstructions that are more geometrically accurate, visually realistic, and simulation-compatible than those generated by recent frontier models, such as Astra and Fable. We therefore view LiteReality-Agent as a practical and important building block for robust real-to-sim systems. Both the source code and the data-capture application are publicly available.

Lucida: Parse, Generate, and Place for Composable Real-to-Sim Scene Modeling

Composable scene modeling aims to recover a real indoor scene as complete, editable object assets arranged as observed, giving robot simulation and embodied AI a simulation-ready replica of the real environment whose objects can be manipulated individually. Existing pipelines decompose the task into three steps---parse the observations into instances, generate an asset for each, and place each asset back---but every step presumes an input that a cluttered capture rarely provides: accurate instance geometry, unoccluded views, and assets that accurately match the observations. We propose Lucida, which keeps this order but redistributes the requirements, so each step consumes only what a real capture reliably provides and precision is reached at the end of the pipeline rather than demanded at its start. Lucida parses the video into a scene graph whose nodes carry per-instance multi-view evidence, generates a complete asset for each instance from its evidence, and places assets with GizmoAct, a VLM policy that casts placement as multi-turn GUI interaction, manipulating the object's gizmo in a closed loop and deciding itself when alignment is reached. Across scene-level 3D object detection, object pose estimation, and scene reconstruction, Lucida improves mAP over Boxer by 69% on R2S-Scene, raises ADD-SB@0.05 from 57.8% to 83.4% on CA-1M, and increases scene F-Score from 0.794 for SAM3D to 0.924.

LEGO-Anything: Coding Agents for 3D Scene Reconstruction

A 3D scene reconstructed from a single image is most useful when represented not as a rendering or a fixed 3D output, but as an explicit scene program whose execution yields a scene that can be inspected, edited, and queried. We present LEGO-Anything, an Image-to-Code framework in which a coding agent iteratively writes and executes Blender code, inspects scenes and renderings, and revises the program. To evaluate end-to-end scene recovery, we introduce LEGO-Bench, a simulator-grounded benchmark with 208 images from 104 diverse indoor and outdoor scenes. LEGO-Bench separately scores artifact validity, visible-surface geometry, and rendered appearance. Its simulator-grounded design enables extensibility and precise automatic evaluation. Among evaluated agents, GPT-6-astra achieves the strongest overall results, with 53.4% indoor and 39.6% outdoor scores, yet substantial gaps remain between delivering valid scene artifacts and faithfully recovering scene geometry and appearance. Analysis of agent construction trajectories reveals three recurring issues: weak scene initialization, regressive edits during iteration, and unreliable self-evaluation. These findings motivate LEGO-Plugin, a training-free harness plugin for more controlled iterative scene construction, which improves all six evaluated models, with relative gains of up to 62.7% in overall score. Finally, we test whether reconstructed scenes can represent natural images and support vision tasks. In LEGO-World, we derive object detections, instance masks, and relative depth as deterministic queries on scenes reconstructed by GPT-6-astra. These readouts show non-trivial performance across all three tasks but fall well short of specialized vision models, suggesting that program-constructed scenes from current coding agents are a promising but not yet sufficiently precise representation of natural images.

SimuScene: Simulation-Ready Compositional 3D Scene Reconstruction from a Single Image

Reconstructing interactive, simulation-ready 3D scenes from a single image is a critical bottleneck for robotic manipulation. While recent single-image lifters recover plausible per-object shapes, composing them yields scenes that collapse under physical simulation due to interpenetrating, hovering, or sinking objects. Existing physics-aware methods address this strictly as a post-hoc layout correction, leaving the underlying geometric errors unresolved. To address this, we introduce SimuScene, a compositional 3D reconstruction pipeline that puts physics in the loop of shape and layout estimation. Rather than using physics merely for layout cleanup, we utilize the physics engine as a diagnostic measurement tool during the generative process itself. By diagnostically simulating reconstructed objects under gravity, we convert penetration and support failures into quantitative correction signals that drive gravity-axis stretching and amodal shape resampling. This physics-informed feedback loop mitigates accumulated reconstruction errors and produces a stable, simulation-ready compositional 3D scene. Extensive experiments demonstrate state-of-the-art performance on physical stability and geometric alignment benchmarks. We further highlight SimuScene's utility by deploying reconstructed environments in humanoid control and robot-arm manipulation tasks.
