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

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

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.

VersaCamVLA: Camera-Configurable VLA Policies for Robotic Manipulation

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.

Pose6DAug: Physically Plausible Multi-view Object Swapping for Robot Data Augmentation

arXiv:2606. 20118v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-action (VLA) policies have shown strong potential for general-purpose manipulation, yet they often fail on novel, out-of-distribution objects whose appearance or geometry deviates from the training distribution.

From Fixed to Free Cameras: Calibration-Free View-Robust Vision-Language-Action Model

Real-world robot deployment rarely maintains the training-stage camera setup, where cameras often experience repositioning or remounting depending on actual scenarios. Existing view-robust Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies tolerate such camera variations only when the camera extrinsics are explicitly provided, making them fragile and hard to use especially when view robustness is critical.

InfiNoVA: Infinite Novel View Augmentation for Viewpoint Invariant Robot Policies

InfiNoVA is a data‑augmentation framework that transforms synchronized multi‑camera demonstrations into a dense, geometrically consistent set of training views by reconstructing each manipulation trajectory as a time‑varying 3D Gaussian. The method renders novel observations from sampled camera poses while preserving the original state‑action pairs, improving frame‑level fidelity and temporal consistency compared to generative synthesis. Across four real‑world manipulation tasks, policies trained with InfiNoVA achieve 5.4× higher average success under unseen randomized viewpoints than VISTA‑based augmentation and 1.7× higher success than training on all five physical camera views.
