Perception-based humanoid loco-manipulation requires connecting egocentric observations and task instructions to whole-body motion. Learning this mapping requires synchronized egocentric images, language commands, and robot-compatible kinematic trajectories, yet no existing data source provides this complete tuple at scale.

SafeFlow is a real‑time, text‑driven humanoid control framework that blends physics‑guided motion generation with a three‑stage safety gate. It uses Physics‑Guided Rectified Flow Matching in a VAE latent space to produce physically executable trajectories, accelerates sampling with Reflow, and filters unsafe outputs via semantic OOD detection, directional sensitivity checks, and hard kinematic constraints before handing them to a motion‑tracking controller. Experiments on the Unitree G1 show that SafeFlow achieves higher success rates, better physical compliance, and faster inference than diffusion‑ and retargeting‑based baselines while maintaining motion diversity.
