Spotter: Embodied Model Leads Execution, VLM Supervises in Parallel for Minute-Level Tasks

Researchers from Griffith University and Tsinghua University introduce Spotter, a robot agent framework where an embodied model executes tasks while a vision-language model supervises in parallel, intervening only upon detected errors, achieving minute-level task completion with 70% less time than VLM-led baselines across RoboCasa, RoboTwin 2.0, and real-robot experiments.

Rendering Robot Actions as Video for Cross‑Embodiment Bidirectional Inference

The article reviews the Masked Visual Actions approach, which renders robot motion as pixel‑level masks for video world models, enabling both forward prediction of environment changes and inverse generation of robot actions, and demonstrates significant performance gains across multiple robotic tasks and embodiments.
