AsyncShield: A Plug-and-Play Edge Adapter for Asynchronous Cloud-based VLA Navigation
Kai Yang, Zedong Chu, Yingnan Guo +6
While Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have been demonstrated possessing strong zero-shot generalization for robot control, their massive parameter sizes typically necessitate c…
Explore Like Humans: Autonomous Exploration with Online SG-Memo Construction for Embodied Agents
Xu Chen, Shichao Xie, Zhining Gu +7
Constructing structured spatial memory is essential for enabling long-horizon reasoning in complex embodied navigation tasks. Current memory construction predominantly relies on a…
ABot-N0: Technical Report on the VLA Foundation Model for Versatile Embodied Navigation
Zedong Chu, Shichao Xie, Xiaolong Wu +41
Embodied navigation has long been fragmented by task-specific architectures. We introduce ABot-N0, a unified Vision-Language-Action (VLA) foundation model that achieves a ``Grand U…
Bridging the Indoor-Outdoor Gap: Vision-Centric Instruction-Guided Embodied Navigation for the Last Meters
Yuxiang Zhao, Yirong Yang, Yanqing Zhu +6
Embodied navigation holds significant promise for real-world applications such as last-mile delivery. However, most existing approaches are confined to either indoor or outdoor env…
SocialNav: Training Human-Inspired Foundation Model for Socially-Aware Embodied Navigation
Ziyi Chen, Yingnan Guo, Zedong Chu +14
Embodied navigation that adheres to social norms remains an open research challenge. Our SocialNav is a foundational model for socially-aware navigation with a hierarchical "brain-…
