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.

MAVP (Map-Aware Visuomotor Policies) is a framework that enhances mobile manipulation by predicting explicit base-pose targets and tracking them with localisation feedback. It reconstructs a static map from teleoperated demonstrations, expressing base trajectories in a shared map frame to provide consistent spatial supervision. During execution, the policy uses RGB observations, joint states, and the robot’s current map-frame base pose to jointly predict target base poses, arm actions, and gripper actions, while a low‑level controller corrects deviations using feedforward motion and pose error feedback. Pose‑noise augmentation during training further improves robustness, and MAVP outperforms unanchored velocity control across six real‑world tasks and three policy families.
