Cosmos3-Nano-Sim-Transfer

NVIDIA distilled causal model published on October 20, 2026, to convert visual simulation controls into RGB video. Geometry, physics, and ground truth still belong to the classic simulator; the network provides visual appearance. It accepts text and depth, segmentation, edge, or blur controls. It is not a policy that produces robot actions nor a certified physics engine.

BEST SUITED FOR

Visual variation for reinforcement learning and simulation-to-real transfer. The model card describes integration with Isaac Lab and up to 600 frames at 480p. The example of eight parallel environments depends on hardware and configuration: it is not a universal limit or performance. Check alignment between images and simulator annotations.

WORTH MONITORING

Photographic appearance may hide temporal errors or control inconsistencies. Evaluate stability throughout the sequence and preserve seeds, prompts, steps, and checkpoint revision. Figures from other Cosmos3 models do not transfer to this variant. Its visual output does not demonstrate that a policy trained with it is safe on real hardware.

Public 16B parameter checkpoint for self-hosted infrastructure. We have not verified a commercial endpoint or token rates: numerical costs are left blank. Downloadable weights do not make inference free. Budget for GPU, memory, video encoding, and operation; review the license of each variant and its dependencies. Playback frames per second do not equate to generation performance.

i Prices change and may depend on level, region or context length. Check the source before making a decision.

05 / EVALUATIONS

How to read the results

“

NVIDIA publishes TransferBench within PAI-Bench-C. DOVER and segmentation mIoU improve as they increase; depth SI-RMSE improves as it decreases. These are different metrics, not interchangeable percentages. We recorded values for this checkpoint with a link to the exact revision. They are not independent Inferama results nor a certification of physical consistency.

Inferama only highlights a “best result” when the metric, test set, configuration, and date allow for an equivalent comparison. The supplier's figures are presented as claims from its own source.
