Echo-2: A second-generation world model

Echo-2 reconstructs physically-grounded geometry, consistent lighting, and material properties from any text prompt, image, or panorama — producing worlds you can walk through, not just look at.

Panorama-to-mesh reconstruction at scale

We introduce a depth-consistent diffusion process that lifts single 360° captures into navigable 6-DoF meshes while preserving material and lighting cues.

Physical grounding for generative environments

A study of collision, gravity, and scale consistency in generated 3D spaces, and how grounding improves downstream simulation and robotics transfer.
