Robotic Assistant: Completing Collaborative Tasks with Dexterous Vision-Language-Action Models

Boshi An, Chenyu Yang, Robert Katzschmann

We adapt a pre-trained Vision-Language-Action (VLA) model (Open-VLA) for dexterous human-robot collaboration with minimal language prompting. Our approach adds (i) FiLM conditionin…
