RoboHarness: A Simple Harness Outperforms VLA and World Action Models

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces RoboHarness, a simple robotic harness that equips large language models (LLMs) with a visual‑geometric control panel for direct manipulation of embodied tasks. By enabling LLM agents to understand and invoke actions without complex vision‑language‑action (VLA) training, RoboHarness allows models such as Qwen3.8‑Flash‑Next to outperform state‑of‑the‑art VLA models on the BEHAVIOR Challenge 2025 tasks. The authors provide an open‑source implementation of the system.

BURGER: Benchmarking and Understanding Robotic Generalization via Embodied Drawing

BURGER is a language‑conditioned robotic drawing benchmark that uses a prompt‑driven pipeline to generate continuous drawing trajectories in both simulation and the real world. The benchmark provides 28,200 simulated demonstrations across 282 tasks, allowing evaluation of vision‑language‑action models on data scale, language grounding, and multimodal behavior. Experiments show that some models improve with more diverse data, capture complex drawing behaviors, and generalize to unseen compositions, with a trained policy successfully deployed on a Franka Panda arm.
