Seeing the World in Full Circle: A New Vision for Robotics
![RobotPan establishes a real-time embodied perception system by fusing data from six cameras and LiDAR, enabling the prediction of metric-scaled [latex]3D[/latex] Gaussians from sparse multi-view observations and facilitating applications such as surround-view rendering, novel view synthesis, depth estimation, and sparse-view dense reconstruction through a jointly optimized framework prioritizing geometric consistency, compact representation, and real-time performance.](https://arxiv.org/html/2604.13476v1/figures/cover.jpg)
Researchers have developed a novel surround-view system that allows robots to perceive and reconstruct 3D environments in real-time using sparse visual data.

In Darren Aronofsky’s latest film, Jennifer Lawrence and Javier Bardem play a couple living a peaceful life in the country. Their tranquility is shattered when a strange pair, portrayed by Michelle Pfeiffer and Ed Harris, suddenly appear.

Despite facing some challenges and box office setbacks, Sydney Sweeney finished 2025 successfully with her film adaptation of Freida McFadden’s novel. It opened strong, earning $19 million, particularly impressive considering it was released alongside Avatar: Fire and Ash. The movie continued to perform well, and by February, it became Sweeney’s highest-grossing film to date, surpassing the seven-year record previously held by Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

There’s nothing quite like getting lost in a good crime thriller. It should completely captivate you, leaving you speechless when it ends and maybe even causing you to wake up in a cold sweat, feeling like you were right there in the story. The best crime thrillers of the last half-century consistently deliver that kind of powerful experience.

The musician, age 58, was recently spotted out and about in Long Beach, California.

The 29-year-old business owner, who recently won the BBC show, described her victory as significant, particularly because of her Indian background and being raised by immigrant parents. She told the Daily Mail that it was a proud moment for her heritage.
Hastings, the current chairman of the board at Los Gatos-based Netflix, has announced he won’t seek re-election when his term ends in June. The company shared this news in a letter to shareholders along with its first quarter financial results.

The band Look Outside Your Window (not the greatest name, admittedly) is actually comprised of members from Slipknot: Corey Taylor, Sid Wilson, Jim Root, and M. Shawn Crahan. Because of this, their new album sounds very much like a Slipknot record.

While both shows were popular, The Boys is really Amazon’s biggest hit. This darkly comedic and often shocking series, based on the comic book by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, launched in 2019 and quickly became a critical darling and one of Prime Video’s most well-known programs.

On April 12th, someone anonymously posted two short clips from the movie Legend of Aang online after receiving a full copy. These clips quickly spread across the internet, including on the website 4Chan, where people encouraged the original poster to share the entire film. The next day, a different account, seemingly based in Singapore, leaked the full movie, leading to even wider distribution. Paramount investigated the leak but found no evidence of a security breach within their own systems.
