AnythingReality: Robust Online Gaussian Splatting SLAM for Open-Vocabulary VR Scene Exploration

We present a novel integrated architecture for robust online 3D Gaussian splatting, real-time VR exploration, and speech-driven Vision-Language-Model interaction. Unlike methods assuming clean depth or external poses, our system combines ORB-SLAM3-based pose estimation with online Gaussian reconstruction for noisy real-world data. A VR pipeline enables immersive exploration of incremental reconstructions; a semantic module transcribes voice commands, generates scene descriptions, and records points of interest. Against state-of-the-art online Gaussian splatting methods, we improve image quality on our dataset (+14.5% PSNR, +8.6% SSIM, -14.3% LPIPS) and TUM-RGBD (+11.7% PSNR, +7.8% SSIM, -21.6% LPIPS), with comparable or superior frame rates via quality-speed configurations. We achieve an 88% VLM object-recognition rate.

Closed-Loop Verbal Reinforcement Learning for Task-Level Robotic Planning

We propose a new Verbal Reinforcement Learning (VRL) framework for interpretable task-level planning in mobile robotic systems operating under execution uncertainty. The framework follows a closed-loop architecture that enables iterative policy improvement through interaction with the physical environment. In our framework, executable Behavior Trees are repeatedly refined by a Large Language Model actor using structured natural-language feedback produced by a Vision-Language Model critic that observes the physical robot and execution traces. Unlike conventional reinforcement learning, policy updates in VRL occur directly at the symbolic planning level, without gradient-based optimization. This enables transparent reasoning, explicit causal feedback, and human-interpretable policy evolution. We validate the proposed framework on a real mobile robot performing a multi-stage manipulation and navigation task under execution uncertainty. Experimental results show that the framework supports explainable policy improvements, closed-loop adaptation to execution failures, and reliable deployment on physical robotic systems.
