What Matters in Orchestrating Robot Policies: A Systematic Study of Hierarchical VLA Agents

arXiv:2606. 10267v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hierarchical vision-language-action (Hi-VLA) systems have emerged as a promising paradigm for complex robot manipulation, by using high-level VLM planners to decompose tasks into language subgoals executed by low-level VLA controllers.
