Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have demonstrated strong potential for embodied AI, yet their high inference latency on GPUs limits real-time deployment. Existing accelerators, such as Dadu-Corki, improve efficiency but treat VLA models as full-precision workloads, leaving substantial redundancy in both memory and computation underexploited.

Vision-language-action (VLA) models commonly adopt an LLM-centric $V \to L \to A$ pathway, where visual observations are projected into the representation space of a large language model before being decoded into robot actions. Although effective, this design incurs substantial computation and memory overhead at every policy invocation.

Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models promise to bring end-to-end reasoning to autonomous driving, but their computational cost remains far too high for real-time control. The core challenge is structural: VLA inference is not a single bottleneck but a cascade of four.
