ROSA: A Robotics Foundation Model Serving System for Robot Factories
Wenqi Jiang, Jason Clemons, Rowland O'Flaherty +5
Robotics foundation models (RFMs) are making general-purpose robots increasingly practical for factory deployments. While RFM serving systems are central to this vision, existing s…
VoLo: A Physical Orchestrator for Open-Vocabulary Long-Horizon Manipulation
Siyi Chen, Hugo Hadfield, Alex Zook +9
Open-vocabulary long-horizon manipulation requires robots to reason over flexible instructions and complex multi-object scenes while adaptively planning, executing, monitoring, and…
RoboLab: A High-Fidelity Simulation Benchmark for Analysis of Task Generalist Policies
Jenai Xuning Yang, Xuning Yang, Rishit Dagli +6
The pursuit of general-purpose robotics has yielded impressive foundation models, yet simulation-based benchmarking remains a bottleneck due to rapid performance saturation and a l…
SPARR: Simulation-based Policies with Asymmetric Real-world Residuals for Assembly
Yijie Guo, Iretiayo Akinola, Lars Johannsmeier +3
Robotic assembly presents a long-standing challenge due to its requirement for precise, contact-rich manipulation. While simulation-based learning has enabled the development of ro…
VLA-0: Building State-of-the-Art VLAs with Zero Modification
Ankit Goyal, Hugo Hadfield, Xuning Yang +2
Vision-Language-Action models (VLAs) hold immense promise for enabling generalist robot manipulation. However, the best way to build them remains an open question. Current approach…
