arXiv:2608.27497v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent embodied models increasingly leverage geometric representations to improve spatial reasoning and robotic manipulation. However, existing reconstruction methods only reconstruct relative geometry with arbitrary scales, causing predicted object dimensions and spatial distances to vary across scenes, viewpoints, and input configurations. This inconsistency prevents geometric perception from being directly aligned with robotic actions defined on…
arXiv:2602.12065v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We present Scene2Demo, a self-evolving framework for offline embodied data generation. Given a single real-world RGB image and a user query, Scene2Demo constructs an interactive simulated scene and generates executable task configurations, multi-view execution videos, and offline robot-learning datasets. Scene2Demo uses a structured multi-module workflow via an object-action graph, representing task generation through object-centric configurati…
arXiv:2608.26058v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scaling generalist vision-language-action (VLA) policies is severely bottlenecked by the inherent heterogeneity of embodied data, which spans diverse robot morphologies, camera configurations, and low-level action spaces. Existing paradigms typically address this mismatch through explicit action retargeting, human-to-robot video synthesis, or dataset-specific adaptation branches, fundamentally hindering the joint learning of a unified policy. We in…
arXiv:2608.25864v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-arm collaboration is becoming a core capability in embodied manipulation. Recent vision-language-action (VLA) models integrate perception, language, and control, but most represent language as a single global instruction and do not provide an explicit mechanism for assigning and composing arm-specific behaviors. This design limits transfer to collaboration patterns that differ from those observed during training. We present MA-VLA, a unified …
arXiv:2608.25572v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Action-conditioned world models have become an important foundation for embodied prediction, planning, and synthetic data generation, but their errors under new task and scene distributions are often concentrated in localized spatiotemporal regions such as robot arms, manipulated objects, contact areas, and occluded objects. This paper presents ConfAL-WM, a confidence-guided active learning framework for post-training embodied world models. Built u…
arXiv:2608.25547v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: To apply the techniques of embodied artificial intelligence to human-oid robots for complex manipulations, dexterous robotic hands are indispensable, which are restricted by the dexterity and tactile perception capability. In this work, we proposed a novel design of tendon-driven five-fingered hand with dis-tributed tactile perception. With a soft-rigid-hybrid structure employed, both compliance and operational force are endowed to the hand. Dual-m…
arXiv:2608.17584v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We propose HODAgent, a System-2 embodied agent for humanoid robots in service settings, addressing situated intent, responsive execution, task revision, and outcome verification. Its semi-duplex architecture integrates an Env-Interactor, Planner, Executor, and hierarchical Memory to maintain coherent interaction, planning, and task state during service episodes. This allows handling new requests during motion, retaining progress, revising actio…
arXiv:2606.18632v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Embodied Foundation Models (EFMs) integrate multimodal understanding, future-state reasoning, and executable robot actions. Yet their safety alignment for human-injury prevention remains underexplored, primarily because real-world data of robots harming humans or creating hazardous household situations cannot be safely or ethically collected. To address this challenge, we propose a safety-critical data construction pipeline for human-injury pre…
arXiv:2604.17810v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This paper considers multi-agent embodied question answering (MA-EQA), which enables robot teams to answer queries based on their long-horizon observations. In contrast to existing edge resource management methods that optimize sensing, communication, or computation performance metrics, MA-EQA focuses on the quality of aggregated memory. To address this paradigm shift, we propose a quality of memory (QoM) model based on generative adversarial e…
arXiv:2511.03996v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Humanoid soccer poses a representative challenge for embodied intelligence, requiring robots to coordinate agile locomotion with unreliable visual perception in dynamic environments. However, existing systems typically rely on modular pipelines that separate perception from control or assume ideal sensing, making it difficult to achieve coherent and reactive behavior under real-world perceptual limitations. In this work, we present a unified re…
arXiv:2608.19794v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The convergence of large language models (LLMs), structured knowledge bases (KBs), and reasoning ability (RA) presents a promising trajectory toward general embodied intelligence (GEI). This paper reviews the evolution of LLM-centered intelligent systems, emphasising their integration with knowledge representation, logical reasoning, and physical embodiment. We analyse LLM architectures, pre-training methods, and inference mechanisms, along with …
arXiv:2608.19729v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-model-based embodied agents can complete instructed tasks but often violate safety constraints in the process, a problem recently framed as interactive safety. Training such agents to act safely is difficult, since safety and task success are distinct objectives, and safety arises only at a small number of safety-critical steps within a trajectory. Standard supervision is insufficient: imitating safe trajectories teaches behavior …
arXiv:2608.19375v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: High-fidelity embodied AI simulators provide realistic evaluation of complex robotic systems, but their computational cost limits their direct use for large-scale reinforcement learning campaigns. We advocate the use of less accurate but more expeditious simulations, which might draw on data-driven, e.g., neural dynamics, models. This contribution argues that the practical value of a neural dynamics model for complex robot control lies in learning …
arXiv:2608.16806v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language model (LLM)-driven embodied agents rely on environment states to interpret scenes, generate high-level plans, and drive physical execution, making planner-visible state representations a critical security boundary. Existing attacks primarily manipulate user instructions, prompt contexts, model behavior, or perceptual inputs, while paying limited attention to whether environment-state text itself can serve as deceptive task eviden…
arXiv:2608.16794v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Language and vision-language models generate plausible embodied plans but do not guarantee executability, as their outputs can violate environment dynamics or act on incorrectly grounded entities. We present a neurosymbolic agent that factors long-horizon household tasks into task-directed visual exploration and constrained symbolic planning. In the first phase, a vision-language model and exploration harness acquire goal-relevant predicates an…
arXiv:2606.13840v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Autonomous driving is shifting from isolated vehicle intelligence toward multi-agent embodied systems that share perception, infer intent, and coordinate action under uncertainty. This survey examines this transition through the lens of Shared World Models (SWMs): predictive cross-agent representations maintained across vehicles, infrastructure, and other traffic participants. We review approximately 400 publications covering vehicle-to-everyth…
arXiv:2608.18840v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Indoor scene synthesis provides essential environments for embodied AI, robotic manipulation, and simulation-based policy learning. Recent code-based scene generation methods produce editable and extensible environments, yet they remain focused on visual construction and object-level articulation, leaving the functional usage of scenes largely unmodeled. To address this problem, we present RoomWright, an agentic usage-driven framework for generatin…
