Open‑HumanScale presents the first fully open recipe for scaling egocentric human video pretraining to 50,000 hours, supported by the curated Open‑HumanScale‑50K corpus annotated with hand motion and natural language. Using this corpus, the authors develop HumanWAM‑Vanilla, a world–action model that achieves high success rates on RoboTwin 2.0 and RoboDojo after robot post‑training, and HumanWAM‑Goal, a visual‑goal‑conditioned model that further improves zero‑shot performance and demonstrates embodied in‑context learning on physical robots. The paper also releases the dataset, curation pipelines, pretrained checkpoints, and evaluation tools to enable reproducible scaling research in embodied AI.
Embodied foundation models are expected to benefit from data scaling like large language models, but face a much tighter data bottleneck. Teleoperated real-robot trajectories remain the dominant pretraining source due to their precise action supervision and embodiment alignment, yet their scalability is limited by high collection cost, acquisition difficulty, and low behavioral and environmental diversity.
InternW0-Δ is a unified World Action Model that integrates pretrained visual dynamics, scene semantics, 4D geometry, and motion priors within a Mixture-of-Transformers framework to generate robot actions. It leverages a frozen VLM for semantic guidance, a 4D foundation model for geometric priors, and introduces Causal Imprint to learn future-relevant scene changes without future-video rollout. The model is pretrained on a newly curated 20K‑hour heterogeneous corpus of robot and human demonstrations, achieving superior performance on simulation benchmarks and real‑robot platforms.

ZimaBlue is a scalable framework that learns generalizable World Action Models (WAMs) from large-scale egocentric videos. It follows a three-stage curriculum: causal video pre‑training, video‑action mid‑training with a unified action representation, and final specialization to a target robot. The system employs an asynchronous Slow‑Fast architecture to enable real‑time 30 Hz action prediction, achieving a jump in real‑robot zero‑shot success from 36.1% to 77.8% when leveraging over 120,000 hours of embodied video.
