## Summary

ACE Robotics and NTU S-Lab have released Mundo, a world model that turns one to 12 photos of a real place into an explorable, interactive simulation for testing and training robots. The team says code and weights will follow by the end of November, and that reconstruction takes 10 to 20 minutes while rendering runs at about 1.5 frames per second on eight A800 GPUs. The team also lists limits, including floating small objects and no long-term memory for scenes that change over time.
