Reconstructing Reality for Physical AI

From the physics of perception to the intelligence of simulation, I explore 3D reconstruction, synthetic data, and world foundation models that shape the future of robotics.

Jonathan Stephens is the Chief Evangelist at Lightwheel.ai, where he explores how world foundation models, synthetic data, and radiance fields are transforming the way machines learn about the physical world.

With a background in GIS and computer vision for industrial applications, he brings over a decade of experience turning spatial data into insight — connecting the technologies that capture reality with those that simulate it to help close the Sim2Real gap.
