Cambrian-P: Pose-Grounded Video Understanding
Camera pose matters. The position and orientation of each viewpoint define a shared spatial coordinate frame that relates observations across video frames. Yet this signal is largely absent from multimodal LLMs (MLLMs) for video understanding, which process frames as isolated 2D snapshots, instead of the persistent scene humans perceive. We revisit pose as a lightweight supervisory signal and introduce Cambrian-P, a video MLLM augmented with per-frame learnable camera tokens and a pose regression head. With a carefully designed sampling scheme, the model achieves substantial gains of 4.5-6.5% on spatial reasoning benchmarks such as VSI-Bench, generalizes across eight additional spatial and general video QA benchmarks, and, as a byproduct, achieves state of the art streaming pose estimation on ScanNet. Surprisingly, training on pseudo-annotated poses from in-the-wild video further improves general video QA benchmarks, showing pose helps beyond spatial reasoning. Together, these results position camera pose as a fundamental signal for video models that reason about the physical world.

Solving Spatial Supersensing Without Spatial Supersensing
Cambrian-S aims to take the first steps towards improving video world models with spatial supersensing by introducing (i) two benchmarks, VSI-Super-Recall (VSR) and VSI-Super-Counting (VSC), and (ii) bespoke predictive s…
Cambrian-S: Towards Spatial Supersensing in Video
We argue that progress in true multimodal intelligence calls for a shift from reactive, task-driven systems and brute-force long context towards a broader paradigm of supersensing. We frame spatial supersensing as four s…
