The paper presents Real‑Time EXPO‑FT, a reinforcement learning framework that fine‑tunes large Vision‑Language‑Action models for real‑time robotic control. It separates slow, expressive action generation from fast, reactive edits, allowing a lightweight policy to adjust actions based on the latest observation. Experiments on the Kinetix benchmark and four dynamic real‑world tasks show that Real‑Time EXPO‑FT achieves superior performance, improving policy success rates from 42% to 97% with only ten minutes of online data and no human intervention.

VLA-Precision introduces an efficient real‑world online reinforcement learning framework for vision‑language‑action (VLA) models, featuring the Asymmetric Co‑Bootstrapping (ACoB) algorithm and the ACoB‑Stream architecture. ACoB uses asymmetric co‑bootstrapping across timescales to rapidly improve policy performance while refining value estimates, thereby reducing policy drift. ACoB‑Stream enables large VLA models to run with up to 10.9× higher throughput and computational efficiency, achieving a 98.3 % mean success rate on nine high‑precision chemistry tasks in under 46 minutes per task.
