I don't see any examples of a 3D scene information usable for simulation. If you want to simulate something hitting a table, you need the whole table (surface) in space, not just some spatial illusion effect extrapolated from an image of a table. I also think modelling the 3D objects for simulation is the least expensive part of an simulation... the simulation is the expensive thing.

I doubt this will be useful for robotics or industrial automation, where you need an actual spatial, or functional understanding of the object/environment.
