Building capable embodied agents requires not only multimodal perception and understanding, but also agentic capabilities for reasoning about actions, adapting to evolving situations, and interacting with the physical world. In this report, we introduce Hy-Embodied-VLM-1.

Artificial general intelligence ultimately requires agents that can reason and act in the physical world. Action models, vision-language-action policies, and world models have advanced this goal, while World Action Models (WAMs) are particularly promising because they connect candidate interventions with predicted consequences.

The paper introduces RARRL, a hierarchical framework that learns when and how an embodied robotic agent should invoke large language model reasoning. By adaptively deciding whether to reason, selecting the reasoning role, and allocating computational budget based on observations, execution history, and remaining resources, RARRL improves task success rates and reduces execution latency. Experiments on the ALFRED benchmark demonstrate that this resource‑aware orchestration outperforms fixed or heuristic reasoning strategies, highlighting the importance of adaptive reasoning control for reliable robotic agents.
