Meta released InteractiveWorld, a simulator for wearable AI assistants. It lets a model see through a person’s eyes and give commands. A human model then acts in a 3D world and the goals are checked against world state. The repo includes 44 scenes and 120 frozen tasks. It supports 36 action families for movement, manipulation and tool use. A Python API and command-line tools are provided. The benchmark evaluates assistants by pairing them with a fixed human model. Tasks span six categories including guidance, planning and accessibility. Setup requires Isaac Sim, OmniGibson and BEHAVIOR-1K assets. Human model files must be downloaded separately under non-commercial licenses.
