Adaptive Vision-Language Grasping via Composable Foundation Priors and Generalizable Grasp Synthesis

AdaRoboVLG is a Vision‑Language‑Grasp framework that separates a generalizable base grasp policy from task‑specific understanding. The base policy generates and evaluates physically feasible grasp candidates using kinematic mapping and force‑closure stability, while foundation‑model modules supply composable spatial, cognitive, and temporal priors that adapt grasp synthesis to different robotic hands and environments without retraining. Experiments show strong cross‑hand generalization, effective handling of diverse grasping challenges, and functional grasping in cluttered, dynamic settings.

Bridging the Morphology Gap: Adapting VLA Models to Dexterous Manipulation via Intent-Conditioned Fine-Tuning

arXiv:2606. 12109v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have demonstrated remarkable zero-shot generalization in robotic manipulation, yet the vast majority of pre-trained pipelines remain strictly confined to low-DoF parallel grippers.

InDex: Empowering VLA Models with Intent-Conditioned Arm-Hand Coordination for Dexterous Manipulation

arXiv:2606. 12109v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Pre-trained Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models provide useful semantic and spatial priors, yet their parallel-gripper action interfaces do not specify how those priors should be realized by a dexterous hand.

Agentic RAG-VLM: Affordance-Aware Retrieval-Augmented Generation with Self-Reflective Planning for Robotic Grasping

arXiv:2606. 31200v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generalizable robotic grasping in cluttered environments is essential for deploying manipulators in unstructured human spaces, yet existing VLM-based methods rely on visual similarity for object matching, neglecting physical affordances such as handle graspability and material fragility, and operate open-loop without spatial reasoning or failure recovery, limiting their effectiveness when objects are densely packed or physically diverse.

Simple-to-Complex Structured Demonstrations for Vision-Language-Action Learning

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have demonstrated strong capabilities in robotic manipulation by integrating visual perception, language understanding, and robot action generation. Existing research has primarily focused on improving model architectures, training strategies, and dataset scale, while little attention has been paid to how demonstrations are collected and organized.

Enabling a Unified Cross-Domain Representation for Two-Finger Gripper Manipulation via Interaction-Centric Modeling

The paper introduces an interaction‑centric framework that unifies representations for two‑finger gripper manipulation across different robot embodiments. By using a parameterized universal gripper abstraction and a canonical gripper‑frame representation, the system infers sub‑tasks from language and RGB‑D inputs, grounds interaction triplets, and employs hybrid features and a Flow‑Matching Transformer to generate smooth 7‑DoF action sequences. Experiments in both simulation and real‑world settings show that this approach achieves competitive benchmark performance while enabling extreme cross‑embodiment and cross‑viewpoint zero‑shot sim‑to‑real transfer to heterogeneous robot platforms.
