We present DreamToNav, a novel autonomous robot framework that uses generative video models to enable intuitive, human-in-the-loop control. Instead of relying on rigid waypoint navigation, users provide natural language prompts (e.g. ``Follow the person carefully''), which the system translates into executable motion. Our pipeline first employs Qwen 2.5-VL-7B-Instruct to refine vague user instructions into precise visual descriptions. These descriptions condition NVIDIA Cosmos 2.5, a state-of-the-art video foundation model, to synthesize a physically consistent video sequence of the robot performing the task. From this synthetic video, we extract a valid kinematic path using visual pose estimation, robot detection and trajectory recovery. By treating video generation as a planning engine, DreamToNav allows robots to visually "dream" complex behaviors before executing them, providing a unified framework for obstacle avoidance and goal-directed navigation without task-specific engineering. We evaluate the approach on both a wheeled mobile robot and a quadruped robot in indoor navigation tasks. DreamToNav achieves a success rate of 76.7%, with final goal errors typically within 0.05-0.10 m and trajectory tracking errors below 0.15 m. These results demonstrate that trajectories extracted from generative video predictions can be reliably executed on physical robots across different locomotion platforms.
