Grounded SI announced GroundedSLAM, claiming a wide-margin lead over all prior methods on LaM(A)ria, Meta's hardest egocentric SLAM benchmark to date—closing the gap with Aria's SLAM and surpassing everything else.
Supporters note that even perfect robot actions are useless without near-perfect SLAM, positioning it as a key unlock for robotics. The SOTA egocentric SLAM is available to everyone today.
