Gemini 4 Argon for Robotics
Google DeepMind 发布面向机器人的 Gemini 4 Argon,该模型在 Embodied Reasoning(ERQA)基准上以纯推理得分 87%,并超过其他前沿模型。
Argon 在 ERQA 上以纯推理得到 87%,并把控制、仿真重建和自改进写成可直接套用的提示词,适合对照现有机器人流程看它能接到哪一层。
OCT. 13, 2026
Gemini 4 Argon 标志着物理理解、代码生成与视觉语义推理的阶跃式变化——解锁机器人技术栈中的新工作流,并加速迈向物理 AGI 的进程。
你可以在 具身推理(ERQA)基准上看到这一能力飞跃,该基准检验模型在三维环境中理解并解决物理与空间问题的能力。仅使用纯推理,Argon 得分为 87%,优于其他所有前沿模型。
作为通用物理推理模型,Argon 可应用于整个机器人生命周期。在本文中,我们分享 Argon 在四个关键领域的代表性提示:
- 机器人控制 → 借助 MuJoCo 练习进行移动操作、零样本机器人控制,以及对视频世界模型的闭环引导。
- Real2Sim → 根据机器人相机画面、第一人称人类视频或手绘纸面草图,重建经物理标定的仿真孪生体。
- 物理理解 → 智能体式多模态事后标注,包括对灵巧性的细致理解、稠密价值函数和进度估计。
- 研究与自我改进 → 通过仿真改进动作,以及在硬件上的迭代式自我改进。
借助 Argon 解锁机器人控制
1. Spot 移动操作:借助 MuJoCo 练习放入垃圾桶
Argon 控制一台 Boston Dynamics Spot® 四足机器人(12 自由度腿部 + 6 自由度机械臂)学习一项新技能:踩下脚踏式垃圾桶以扔掉汽水罐。Argon 创建脚踏式垃圾桶的铰接式 MuJoCo 数字孪生体,先练习动作,再踩下实体踏板,将汽水罐丢入打开的桶中。

Spot 移动操作——真实到仿真再到真实的脚踏式垃圾桶投放:Spot 拾起汽水罐,查看其腕部相机,在 MuJoCo 中练习三腿三脚架平衡,踩下脚踏板,确认手部位于打开的桶中央,然后将罐子丢入其中。
提示:
There's a Diet Coke can behind you and another on the black table on your left.
Use the spot-mobile-manipulation skill to pick them up and trash them in the black foot-pedal bin.
Before stepping down on the pedal, verify in the front cameras that your front-right foot target is centered on the pedal, and use a 2-agent verification swarm (foot-verifier and hand-verifier) to verify both the foot-pedal step and the 3D hand-in-bin alignment before releasing.纯文本

Task: Get the robot arm to reorient the mug upright and put the napkin inside the mug.
## Execution Discipline
- Simply output 1 sentence observation followed immediately by your `curl` command (with `# Plan:` on Turn 1 and `# Thought:` on every turn). Everything needed is in `obs.json` and the calibrated reticle/grid drawn on `wrist_cam.png`.
## Visual Coordinate Reference (Annotated on wrist_cam.png)
- `+X` (UP in image): Away from robot base | `-X` (DOWN): Towards robot base
- `+Y` (LEFT in image): World left | `-Y` (RIGHT): World right
- `+Z`: Height above table | `Yellow numbers`: World (X, Y) in centimetres (2 cm grid at `grid_z`)
- `Cyan + crosshair`: Current 3D pinch center
- `Cyan [ + ] brackets`: Current jaw opening and closing line
- `Green line`: Current object long-axis orientation (`yaw_deg`: 0° = vertical along +X, 90° = horizontal along +Y)
- `pitch_deg = 90°`: Straight down (-Z) top-down grasp/place; `pitch_deg < 60°`: Tilted coaxial approach along finger axis
## Closed-Loop Turn Workflow
1. Inspect current state & view `wrist_cam.png`:
`curl -s http://127.0.0.1:8081/obs` (returns `ee_pos`, `holding`, `status`, `workspace`, `wrist_cam_path`).
2. Select VLM call granularity upfront on Turn 1:
- Coarse (2–4 calls): `look_at` -> `grasp` -> `place` -> `done`
- Pre-Grasp Hover Verify (4–7 calls): `look_at` -> `goto(z=0.04)` (verify cyan `[ + ]` brackets straddle target) -> `grasp` -> `place_until_contact` -> `done`
- Fine Visual Servoing (8–20 calls): `look_at` -> `grasp` -> pre-pose `goto` -> closed-loop `move_by` / `move_until_contact` -> `done`
3. Send motion primitives (`POST /plan`) and verify visually after every turn in the updated `wrist_cam.png`. If `status == "grasp_failed"`, call `robot.look_at(...)` to re-observe and recover closed-loop.
## Code-as-Policies Primitives (`POST http://127.0.0.1:8081/plan`)
robot.look_at(x=0.35, y=0.13, z=0.14, grid_z=0.015)
x, y = robot.deproject(u=0.52, v=0.48, z_plane=0.015)
robot.grasp(x=x, y=y, z=0.015, yaw_deg=-35, pitch_deg=90)
robot.place(x=0.24, y=0.06, z=0.075)
robot.place_until_contact(x=0.24, y=0.06, z=0.015, max_lag=0.012, relief=0.002)
robot.goto(x=0.28, y=0.05, z=0.04, arc_z=0.14, pitch_deg=25, azimuth_deg=90, roll_deg=0, speed=0.10)
robot.move_by(forward=0.025, dz=-0.002, dpitch_deg=-3, droll_deg=5, speed=0.04)

3. Omni 控制
Argon 在 Gemini Omni World Model 中引导机器人,将五块散落的 Scrabble 字母牌(G, R, A, N, O)排列成整齐的一排,拼出 A - R - G - O - N。Argon 并非指定一条静态提示,而是在闭合的视觉回路中进行引导。它编写带时间戳的动作提示,检查中间推演关键帧,并优化其提示。

迭代式视频世界模型引导灵巧手:33 步受引导视频推演,拼出 A-R-G-O-N。
提示:
Goal: {task_goal}
You are steering a video world model (Gemini Omni) in an iterative visual feedback loop. Inspect the attached frames from the latest rollout and write the next timestamped action prompt for the video world model:
- Break complex motions into one simple, single-direction action at a time.
- Keep inactive hands retracted and avoid blocking the camera's view of objects in the workspace.
- Explicitly state which areas of the workspace become empty after an object moves.
- Use [MM:SS.mmm] timestamps for each action beat and wrap your output in <omni_prompt> tags.
Example format (sample timestamps only, not the full prompt):
<omni_prompt>
[00:00.000] Character A's left hand rests at the side while the right hand reaches toward the target object.
[00:02.500] Character A's right fingertips push the object smoothly into the center of the table, leaving its starting area empty.
[00:05.000] Character A's right hand opens and retracts to the side so all placed objects remain in clear view of the camera.

借助 Argon 解锁 Real2Sim
1. 机器人视角到仿真
Argon 观看一段真实机器人遥操作片段并构建数字孪生;它获取或创建在与灵巧手接触时外观和行为都与真实物体相似的仿真资产。Argon 在迭代式视觉推理循环中调节这些资产与场景,使仿真画面和接触事件与真实录制数据中的相应内容相匹配。
抱歉,您的浏览器不支持播放此视频
左(真实视图):同步的真实机器人相机画面;右(仿真):由 Argon 重建并标定的 3D MuJoCo 场景。
提示:
[Attached: robot_rollout_episode]
Build a MuJoCo scene of the robot and reconstructed task objects. When each episode is replayed frame by frame, by driving the robot joints toward the logged observation.state with joint-space PD.
Iterate using two verification objectives:
(1) Visual match: MuJoCo renders from the head_left, left_wrist, and right_wrist cameras line up with, and look like, those real observations.
(2) Physical match: the simulated contact force/torque on each Sharpa fingertip, in the sensor frame, matches the logged tactile_force in timing, magnitude and direction.
What you can tune happens before simulation starts:
(1) Static object assets: realistic geometry, collision shapes, mass, inertia, friction and joints, with appearance close to the real objects, plus the initial object poses at t = 0.
(2) Offline-planned robot commands, changed only in frames where the real fingertips are near an object. Each command must stay within 0.55 rad (arm joints) and 0.65 rad (hand joints) of the logged teleop trajectory. Everywhere else, replay the logged trajectory unchanged.
No sim cheating: task objects may move only through real MuJoCo contact with the robot hands and the environment (mj_step).
Not allowed after t = 0: changing MjModel parameters; applying external forces or torques to objects; welds or equality constraints; feedforward torques beyond joint-space PD; setting or rolling back object qpos/qvel; disabling or excluding collisions; reporting contact forces that don't come from the MuJoCo solver (for example, copying the logged tactile readings).
Immediately present the reconstructed scene and rollout results as an interactive HTML session viewer with one page per episode, showing:
- At the bottom: A synced timeline (play, scrub, speed control) that drives every panel.
- On the left panel: An interactive 3D Blender scene showing the simulated robot and objects, showing contact points and force arrows as replay progresses.
- On the right panel: Real vs. sim camera views side by side for all 3 cameras. Real vs. sim finger force visualizations.纯文本

提示:
[Attached: egocentric_human_video.mp4, candidate_sim_views.png, hand_3d_keypoints.json]
You are building a physically solvable 500 Hz MuJoCo manipulation environment (`scene.xml`) and studio Blender render that faithfully reproduces the tabletop task shown in `egocentric_human_video.mp4` on a bimanual humanoid robot with 22-DoF dexterous five-fingered hands:
1. Scene Reconstruction & Camera Calibration:
- Identify only the manipulation-relevant objects (the grasped target object and the receiving container or landmark) and triangulate their 3D tabletop coordinates from the egocentric camera intrinsics/extrinsics.
- Replace crude bounding boxes with compound convex-decomposed 3D meshes so concave containers (nested bowls, recessed wooden trays, open bins) support physical interior placement.
2. 500 Hz Dexterous Motion-Fitting Stress Test:
- Retarget the 3D human wrist and finger keypoints to the humanoid's 7-DoF arm and 22-DoF hand joints, and step the trajectory in MuJoCo at 500 Hz (dt = 0.002s) with zero kinematic weld constraints.
- Verify opposing thumb-and-finger force closure, clean object lift (> 2 cm), and stable final placement inside or beside the target landmark.纯文本

提示:
[Attached: hand_drawn_throw_sketch.jpg]
Translate this hand-drawn sketch into a physically verified humanoid simulation in `mujoco_warp` and a raytraced Blender Cycles video:
1. Scene & Kinematic Setup from Sketch:
- Parse the spatial layout from `hand_drawn_throw_sketch.jpg`: place the 76-DoF humanoid (32-DoF body equipped with two 22-DoF five-finger dexterous hands) at the origin facing a table holding a 3-2-1 pyramid of 6 rigid target boxes, with a projectile sphere grasped in the right five-finger hand.
2. Whole-Body Balance & Dexterous Throw Synthesis:
- Synthesize a 50 Hz whole-body throwing trajectory (140 steps, 2.80 s) across four phases: (1) stable stance & 5-finger power grasp closure, (2) torso/shoulder wind-up with ankle-hip Center-of-Mass compensation, (3) forward whipping acceleration, and (4) synchronized 22-DoF five-finger opening at peak hand velocity so the ball launches on a ballistic arc into the pyramid's second-tier center of mass.
- Verify in `mujoco_warp` contact physics that the humanoid maintains upright balance (< 3 cm pelvis drift) and knocks down all 6 target boxes.纯文本

提示词:
# Prompt 1 — Physics-Accurate MuJoCo Environment & Benchmark Generation
Make a MuJoCo environment where a dual-arm robot (two 7-DoF Franka FR3 arms with parallel-jaw grippers on a shared tabletop) is tasked to solve the classic 12-ball balance scale weight puzzle from https://www.mathsisfun.com/pool_balls_solution.html.
1. Create 12 visually indistinguishable pool balls in a 2x6 starting rack (11 standard 150 g, 1 odd ball either 270 g or 30 g).
2. Build a functional two-pan Roberval balance scale at the center of the table with parallelogram equality constraints (`mjEQ_JOINT`) so the Left (Gold) and Right (Teal) pans stay horizontal, plus Red (Heavy) and Blue (Light) submission trays.
3. Track distinct settled weighings (`weighing_count`) and reward `1.00` for isolating the true odd ball in the correct Heavy/Light tray within <= 3 weighings.
# Prompt 2 — Closed-Loop Vision-Only Solver
Implement an independent closed-loop policy relying strictly on stereo RGB camera inputs (`head_camera_left_rgb_image`, `head_camera_right_rgb_image`) and robot proprioception (`add_privileged_task_observations=False`):
1. Segment the 12 balls, Gold/Teal pans, and Red/Blue trays in both stereo views and triangulate their 3D coordinates.
2. Visually read the balance scale tilt after each weighing from stereo vertical pixel disparity (+1 = left heavier, -1 = right heavier, 0 = balanced).
3. Rotate the gripper wrist yaw by 90 degrees when grasping/placing inside the narrow scale pans to clear the raised rims, and isolate the odd ball into the Red or Blue tray within <= 3 weighings.纯文本

提示词:
# Stage 1 — Measure Objects & Dry-Run Plan (No Hardware Motion)
Stage 1: measure objects — find the objects and plan the whole motion. The arm does not move in this stage.
A. I put a LEGO brick and a box on the table in front of the arm, and the wooden box to one side. Find the brick and the wooden box in the image. And also in the real world. Show this in an annotated image.
B. A dry-run plan (no hardware). Write the planner to pick and place the lego block. Print the plan table, draw all poses onto the overhead image, and stop. Do not move the robot.
Report with evidence.
# Stage 2 — Pre-Pick Hover & Wrist-Camera Verification
Stage 2: Put the gripper above the brick without touching it, and verify with the wrist camera that the arm and the vision agree. Please record executions with both cameras (compressed video is OK).
# Stage 3 (Autonomous Pick-and-Place → Self-Improvement → Optimization):
1. Execute autonomously: Turn the Stage 1 dry run into a real grasp, lift, and place into the wooden box. Run it yourself subject to safety rules from AGENTS.md.
2. Self-improve: When an attempt fails, diagnose it yourself. Review your own logs and wrist/overhead footage, find the root cause, check the fix in a dry run, and retry.
3. Optimize on feedback: Once it succeeds, make it at least 2× faster within safety limits (rule R5) unless I authorize more, or give feedback.纯文本
