Vision-Language-Action (VLA) policies typically predict actions at fixed time intervals, coupling the route a robot follows with its execution pace. This coupling complicates adaptation from teleoperation: useful geometric guidance comes with timing shaped by interface delays and operator behavior. Our key insight is t …
Demonstration-conditioned policies provide a natural interface for specifying robot behavior, yet long-horizon manipulation remains difficult when visually similar states recur across different stages or when demonstrations and executions proceed at different speeds. We identify the resulting failure mode as stage conf …
Object-goal navigation (ObjectNav) in multi-floor scenarios presents a challenge due to sparse rewards caused by long-horizon decision-making. In this paper, we propose a diagnostic study based on a modular framework with an effective learnable policy to analyze failure factors in multi-floor scenarios. To achieve an e …
Mobile robots and vehicles carry synchronized multi-camera rigs, yet many streaming 3D foundation models are designed for monocular input, leaving efficient use of rig geometry a challenge. We present StreamRig, a freeze-and-stream framework that builds causal streaming odometry for calibrated rigs on a frozen multi-vi …
Object-centric scene reconstruction requires completing partial object observations while preserving metric alignment and avoiding collisions with the surrounding. Existing generation-based methods are often image-conditioned and suffer from scale ambiguity and insufficient geometric constraints. We propose COOL, a fra …
