原文摘要
We present VBot Exo2Ego Policy, a video generation model that turns third-person videos into first-person observations of a selected actor, offering a practical way to expand first-person operation data from abundant real-world footage. To support this goal, we introduce a lightweight data collection pipeline and mobile app that support first-person recording, third-person recording, and synchronized capture of both views. This setup combines accessible single-view collection with paired RGB and camera geometry for learning cross-view correspondence. Building on a pretrained video diffusion transformer, our model incorporates geometric guidance and auxiliary supervision from semantic masks and hand keypoints to facilitate optimization and improve the fidelity of hand-object interactions. Camera geometry is injected stochastically during training and gradually removed, allowing inference without target-camera calibration. To accommodate the diversity of Internet videos, we combine source-video perception and reasoning, optional actor references, and multi-shot adaptation to identify the intended actor and follow an operation across camera cuts. The collection system and generation model provide a foundation for expanding first-person operation data across tasks, scenes, and participants.
