Let the Mind Conceive, Let the Hand Achieve: Following Multimodal Instructions for Long-Horizon Robotic Manipulation

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces Orchestra, a robotic agent that separates task planning from action generation to follow multimodal, long‑horizon instructions. Orchestra decomposes instructions into ordered subtasks, tracks progress, updates object locations, and uses a progress evaluator to decide when to advance. On the new RMBench‑Compose benchmark, Orchestra outperforms prior methods, achieving higher success rates and longer average subtask sequences, and shows improved performance on real‑world multi‑step tasks.

Physical Agentic AI: An Architecture for Orchestrating a Robot Crew with LLMs

Physical Agentic AI proposes an architecture that links semantic planning with physical execution for robot crews. Each robot exposes a typed skill library, while a foundation model planner decomposes tasks into phases and assigns robot‑skill pairs. A Robot Orchestrator validates and authorizes one skill at a time, ensuring actions are grounded in robot capabilities, system state, and workflow constraints before actuation.

LADDER: A Long-Horizon Robot Manipulation Benchmark

LADDER is a long‑horizon robot manipulation benchmark that scales from 1 to 10 subgoals within the same environment, covering 145 tasks across three suites and two embodiments. The benchmark evaluates low‑level policies and orchestration methods, showing that while low‑level policies perform well on single‑subgoal tasks, they fail on extended tasks, and orchestration improves performance but is limited by execution errors. Tool‑selection orchestration with GPT‑Policy achieves the highest success rate (~62%) but at significant time and cost.
