用动态模型让机器人更聪明地完成复杂操作

In dynamic environments such as warehouses, hospitals, and homes, robots must seamlessly transition between gross motion and precise manipulations to complete complex tasks. However, current Vision-Language-Action (VLA) frameworks, largely adapted from pre-trained Vision-Language Models (VLMs), often struggle to reconcile general task adaptability with the specialized precision required for intricate manipulation. To address this challenge, we propose DAM-VLA, a dynamic action model-based VLA framework. DAM-VLA integrates VLM reasoning with diffusion-based action models specialized for arm and gripper control. Specifically, it introduces (i) an action routing mechanism, using task-specific visual and linguistic cues to select appropriate action models (e.g., arm movement or gripper manipulation), (ii) a dynamic action model that fuses high-level VLM cognition with low-level visual features to predict actions, and (iii) a dual-scale action weighting mechanism that enables dynamic coordination between the arm-movement and gripper-manipulation models. Across extensive evaluations, DAM-VLA achieves superior success rates compared to state-of-the-art VLA methods in simulated (SIMPLER, FurnitureBench) and real-world settings, showing robust generalization from standard pick-and-place to demanding long-horizon and contact-rich tasks.
