ActiveScale is a framework that enhances active perception for robots by integrating model, data, and hardware innovations. It augments vision‑language‑action models with historical video observations and explicit camera‑pose supervision, and introduces a scalable human‑robot mid‑training recipe using 1000 hours of egocentric and robotic data. The Active‑perception Mobile‑manipulation Platform (AMP) enables single‑operator teleoperation for scalable demonstration collection, leading to improved success rates on active‑perception tasks.

Event cameras, also known as neuromorphic cameras, have gained significant attention in recent years due to their high temporal resolution, high dynamic range, and low power consumption. While many studies and datasets in neuromorphic vision have focused on automotive and drone applications, human-centric daily-life scenarios remain largely underrepresented, despite their importance for developing and benchmarking event-based perception systems.

Fine-grained understanding of operating room (OR) activity could enable workflow-aware assistance, yet remains difficult due to clutter, occlusions, and limited sensing. The prevailing approach to model this environment is scene graphs as an interpretable representation of OR interactions.
