The paper introduces VLAct, a Vision‑Language‑Action model that focuses on representation‑centric continued pre‑training rather than merely scaling robot data. VLAct is trained on diverse, multi‑embodiment robot data and preserves a broad VLM prior while encouraging shared action semantics across embodiments. Experiments across simulation, real‑world, and unseen‑embodiment settings show that VLAct consistently outperforms existing industrial VLA systems, achieving high success rates with only a modest compute budget and open‑source data.

AtomEgo investigates how to integrate large-scale egocentric human interaction data into embodied foundation model pre‑training. The study uses a curated 2,659‑hour corpus and a scalable data pipeline to evaluate three co‑training paradigms across vision‑language‑action and world‑action architectures. Results show that the benefit of egocentric data depends on both its scale and the quality of alignment with robotic embodiment, offering practical guidance for scalable ego‑robot pre‑training.

The paper introduces HuRo, a dataset of 630K robotized episodes derived from diverse human videos, created via a pipeline that aligns observations and actions for robotic use. Experiments on four real‑world manipulation tasks show that scaling robotized pretraining boosts task completion from 51.5% to 80.3% and improves out‑of‑distribution performance under spatial and visual shifts. Ablation studies reveal that visual robotization enhances robustness and that end‑to‑end pretraining with retargeted actions outperforms visual‑only transfer.

FluxVLA Engine is an open, configuration‑driven platform that unifies the fragmented components of embodied policy development—datasets, visual‑language and world models, action heads, learning methods, distributed training, simulation evaluation, inference, and robot interfaces—into a reproducible data‑to‑deployment workflow. It adds features such as compositional dual‑arm simulation, scalable automatic data generation, human‑in‑the‑loop rollout and correction, Real‑Time Chunking for fast inference, and lightweight remote GPU serving, thereby linking offline learning, simulation validation, online correction, and real‑robot execution under shared, auditable contracts. The engine aims to eliminate engineering bottlenecks that currently separate promising embodied‑learning algorithms from reliable, reproducible deployment.
