arXiv:2607. 11498v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-action (VLA) models predict robot actions from visual observations and language instructions.
arXiv:2606. 24472v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-action (VLA) models have made rapid progress in generalist robot manipulation by harnessing semantic knowledge from pretrained vision-language backbones, but their visual tokens remain grounded in 2D image coordinates rather than the calibrated geometry of the robot's cameras -- a mismatch especially pronounced in multi-camera setups, where views are coupled by known intrinsics and extrinsics yet processed as independent images.
arXiv:2607. 20785v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deploying navigation systems at scale requires a recipe that minimizes sensor assumptions, generalizes across robot embodiments, and trains efficiently.
arXiv:2607. 05396v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Real-world robot deployment rarely maintains the training-stage camera setup, where cameras often experience repositioning or remounting depending on actual scenarios.
arXiv:2607. 25912v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have shown strong potential for general robot manipulation, but most existing models rely on 2D visual-language backbones and lack fine-grained 3D understanding of target objects, especially under occlusion, pose variation, scale changes, and precise spatial interaction.
arXiv:2606. 06761v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Visuomotor manipulation policies trained via large-scale behavior cloning have achieved strong semantic scene understanding, yet often fail to reliably execute correct low-level actions under distribution shifts.
Real-world robot deployment rarely maintains the training-stage camera setup, where cameras often experience repositioning or remounting depending on actual scenarios. Existing view-robust Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies tolerate such camera variations only when the camera extrinsics are explicitly provided, making them fragile and hard to use especially when view robustness is critical.
arXiv:2608. 15284v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Navigation instruction generation from ego-centric RGB video in continuous environments is an important yet challenging task for human-robot interaction and scalable dataset construction.
arXiv:2606. 29350v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models and vision-language action models endow the robot with unprecedented capabilities.
arXiv:2609.38443v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce BIND, a new action representation for visuomotor robot policies that binds 3D robot actions to their corresponding 2D image features, yi...
The paper introduces a modular perception framework that uses vision‑language models (VLMs) to annotate object‑level regions from a single RGB‑D observation, then grounds these annotations with depth data to build an object‑centric representation. Experiments on 151 tabletop scenes demonstrate that this decomposition maintains strong semantic performance while significantly improving localization and depth estimation compared to direct VLM inference. The resulting representation is integrated into a task‑planning system for robotic manipulation.
arXiv:2606. 03943v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video-Action Models (VAMs) leverage the broad visual dynamics captured by pre-trained video diffusion models, offering a promising path toward generalizable robot manipulation.
