Real2Gym Turns Videos Into Interactive Robot Gyms, Beating GPT-6 Direct Mode by 33% on Real Robots

Shanghai-AI-Laboratory · hf · 2026-09-30

Shanghai AI Laboratory's Real2Gym is an agentic Real2Sim2Real framework that converts human and robot manipulation demos into interactive simulation gyms and transfers learned skills to real robots. It reconstructs editable scenes, validates actions via physics execution, and distills successes and failures into reusable procedures and recovery strategies—without weight updates. It outperforms GPT-6 Astra Direct Mode by 16.7% in reconstruction success with 74.9% fewer tokens, and by 33.3% on real Franka execution across four tasks.
