arXiv:2606. 08094v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies are typically shipped as Python/PyTorch stacks that assume a workstation-class GPU, a mismatch for the hardware on which robots actually run.
Robion is a new serving and management system designed to run Vision‑Language‑Action (VLA) models on multi‑GPU edge servers for robot factories. It splits the VLM and ADiT stages within a single GPU, shares streams across multiple models, and prioritizes requests by remaining SLO time, enabling high robot load while meeting strict latency requirements. In experiments, Robion achieves 6.7× higher robot load than vLLM‑Omni and 1.5× higher than a monolithic pipeline, and can serve 64 robots on a 4‑GPU server with 98% SLO attainment.
The paper introduces VLA-ULAP, a lightweight local action predictor that interleaves remote vision–language–action (VLA) calls with on‑edge inference. ULAP, with only 7.4 M parameters, predicts action chunks in a single pass using current views, proprioception, and action history, eliminating the need for VLA hidden states or server round‑trips. Experiments on Jetson Orin Nano and simulated benchmarks show that VLA-ULAP can remove 48.8–76.7 % of VLA calls while preserving 95–97.5 % of baseline success, and it outperforms local VLA‑acceleration alternatives in both inference time and energy consumption.
