VersaCamVLA: Camera-Configurable VLA Policies for Robotic Manipulation

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

VersaCamVLA introduces a camera‑configurable framework that separates camera‑set representation from action learning in Vision‑Language‑Action models. It learns a unified scene‑token interface that maps any number of posed RGB views into fixed‑size latent tokens using multi‑signal target‑view prediction and Wrist‑Augmented Pose Sampling. At deployment, a lightweight spatial encoder injects these tokens into a pretrained VLA, enabling robust manipulation without explicit 3D sensing or novel‑view rendering, and consistently outperforms prior methods across varying camera counts and unseen poses.

WARP-VLA: Wrist-Camera Adaptation for View-Robust Policy Execution in Vision-Language-Action Models

WARP-VLA is a Vision‑Language‑Action model designed to be robust to variations in wrist‑camera viewpoints. It uses a Mixture‑of‑Experts architecture where each expert learns a view‑specific feature transformation, and a router selects the appropriate expert based on implicit view cues, eliminating the need for explicit camera extrinsic parameters. Experiments on the LIBERO benchmark show that WARP‑VLA doubles the success rate of pi‑0.5 from 39.2% to 78.3% under wrist‑view perturbations, and real‑robot tests confirm that the simulation‑learned adaptation transfers to diverse deployment settings.

PoseVLA: Universal Pose Pretraining for Generalizable Vision-Language-Action Policies

arXiv:2602. 19710v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models often suffer from feature collapse and low training efficiency because they entangle high-level perception with sparse, embodiment-specific action supervision.

ActiveScale: Scaling Active Perception for Robots across Model, Data, and Hardware

ActiveScale is a framework that enhances active perception for robots by integrating model, data, and hardware innovations. It augments vision‑language‑action models with historical video observations and explicit camera‑pose supervision, and introduces a scalable human‑robot mid‑training recipe using 1000 hours of egocentric and robotic data. The Active‑perception Mobile‑manipulation Platform (AMP) enables single‑operator teleoperation for scalable demonstration collection, leading to improved success rates on active‑perception tasks.
