Many emerging video language modeling tasks require systems to move beyond clip-level abstraction and model visual content as it unfolds over extended time horizons. However, most existing video datasets rely on coarse or sparsely aligned supervision, which compresses temporal variation and limits the ability of models to learn reusable representations of continuous visual dynamics. We introduce Kairos, a video dataset for video-language modeling with time-resolved annotations. Kairos consists of long-duration videos, ranging from ten minutes to half an hour, annotated with fine-grained temporal alignment. The annotations capture ongoing actions, entity appearances and attributes, interactions, and evolving contextual cues along the video timeline. This time-resolved structure supports fine-grained evaluation, long-range modeling and reasoning, instruction data construction, representation learning, and video generation. Kairos provides a general-purpose foundation for modeling visual experiences over time.

Experiments show that FRAMEWORKERS outperforms strong LLM planners in routing accuracy, recovers reliably from runtime failures, generalizes to unseen sub-agents without retraining, and achieves higher end-to-end video quality and broader task coverage than fixed pipelines, single-agent systems, and prior multi-agent approaches.

Event-based motion estimation is central to tasks that demand high temporal resolution and robustness to fast motion. Existing methods typically rely on iterative optimization or repeated hypothesis comparison, offsetting the sensor's low-latency advantage. We propose Oriented Distance Field Motion Estimation (ODF Motion Estimation), which replaces this optimization with a single averaging step over a precomputed field of event distance vectors, combined with an adaptive event-count selection strategy and a parameter-free trail filter. On public and self-collected datasets, ODF motion estimation reaches sub-pixel accuracy at the lowest latency among compared methods. We validate its generality on two downstream applications rather than treating them as separate contributions. First, the estimated trajectory is converted into a blur kernel and paired with a compact iterative-unfolding network, trained on simulated motion-estimation noise, for real-time non-blind image deblurring, attaining competitive or superior PSNR/SSIM with under 1M parameters. Second, the same precomputed field is repurposed for directional event filtering in a low-power asynchronous pupil and glint tracker, sustaining stable tracking for tens of seconds while lowering a near-eye module's power draw.
