Frontier Video and Embodied Reasoning May 12th, 2026 Introducing Perceptron Mk1 Frontier Video and Embodied Reasoning May 12th, 2026 Introducing Perceptron Mk1 Frontier Video and Embodied Reasoning Today we're releasing Perceptron Mk1 (“Mark One"): a model purpose-built for video understanding and embodied reasoning, matching frontier performance at a fraction of the cost.
Mk1 is the first release in our new family of closed-source models.
It delivers a step-change in image, video, and embodied reasoning that advances the capability frontier for physical AI and surpasses our open-source Isaac series across the board.
Built for the Physical World The physical world doesn't move in snapshots; it's a continuous stream of events.
Mk1 is the perception and reasoning layer for that stream.
It matches the image, video, and embodied reasoning capabilities of frontier models, including the Gemini Pro series, while achieving lower cost than Gemini Flash Lite ($0.15 per million input tokens, $1.50 per million output).
What’s New Temporal Reasoning with Thinking Traces Mk1 reasons across time.
Given a sports broadcast or a cooking video, it doesn't just return a label.
