We present OSCAR, a precise action-conditioned video world model that generalizes across different robot embodiments and enables robot policy evaluation. Existing video world models face three main challenges for real-world robot evaluation: limited scenario diversity in current robot training datasets, imprecise action following, and poor generalization across embodiments for broad adoption. We tackle these challenges from two perspectives. At its core is a large-scale standardized data pipeline that curates, filters, and deduplicates broad robotics and egocentric human datasets, yielding a clean joint-training dataset that spans diverse tasks, scenarios, actions, and robot embodiments. To condition the video model, we adopt 2D kinematic skeleton rendering as a unified conditioning representation that generalizes across different robot arms or even human hands. We finetune the Cosmos-Predict2.5-2B model on a single GH200 GPU. Our model achieves significant improvement on action following, appearance quality, and motion consistency, compared to existing baselines, which either have a much larger model size or require more GPUs. We further deploy OSCAR to evaluate robot policies from RoboArena. Extensive experiments demonstrate the significant correlation between our virtual policy evaluation in OSCAR and real-world evaluation, paving the way for the future where robot policies can be purely evaluated in virtual generated worlds.
