Article Summary

Video generation models (VGMs) offer strong spatiotemporal priors for embodied observation--action modeling. However, joint-space action vectors lack explicit image-space structure and vary in dimensionality and semantics across embodiments, making it challenging to directly leverage the rich spatiotemporal priors of VGMs. End-effector visualizations provide an alternative but do not specify the full articulated configuration needed for robot execution. We present Dream4ACT, a world model built for joint video-action modeling across embodiments. To unify action representations across embodiments, we introduce a shared visual action interface, called action views, which render target joint configurations from four prescribed virtual cameras using URDF-based forward kinematics. This shared visual representation preserves embodiment-specific articulated geometry while allowing observation and action sequences to share a video autoencoder and diffusion transformer. Through masked flow-matching, our model supports forward dynamics, inverse dynamics, and joint observation--action generation within a single jointly trained model by varying which future sequences are corrupted. To recover executable action sequences from predicted action views, we propose a training-free, URDF-constrained multiview recovery mechanism, without a learned embodiment-specific decoder. Dream4ACT achieves an average success rate of 88.98\% on RoboTwin~2.0 and an overall score of 65.66 on TriWorldBench, supporting effective closed-loop manipulation and competitive action-conditioned multiview prediction through the visual action interface.
