The next evolution: VLA+ models Just yesterday Microsoft Research released Rho-alpha (ρα) – their first robotics model, built on the Phi family. While most Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models stop at vision and language, Rho-alpha adds: ▪️ Tactile sensing to feel objects during manipulation ▪️ Online learning that lets it improve...

🚨 BREAKING: Microsoft's first robotics foundation model! 🤯 Microsoft just announced Rho-alpha (ρα), their first robotics model derived from the Phi series of vision-language models. Rho-alpha translates natural language commands into control signals for robotic systems performing bimanual manipulation tasks. Commands like "push the green button with the right gripper," "pull out the red wire," "flip the top switch on," or "turn the knob to position 5" get executed directly by dual-arm robots. What makes this different from standard vision-language-action (VLA) models is the additional modalities. Rho-alpha is a VLA+ model that adds tactile sensing to the perceptual mix, with plans to incorporate force feedback. On the learning side, the model is designed to continually improve during deployment by learning from human feedback. The training approach combines trajectories from physical demonstrations and simulated tasks with web-scale visual question answering data. Since teleoperation data is scarce and expensive, Microsoft is using NVIDIA Isaac Sim on Azure to generate physically accurate synthetic datasets via reinforcement learning. These simulated trajectories get combined with commercial and open physical demonstration datasets. The model is currently under evaluation on dual-arm setups and humanoid robots. Microsoft is opening an Early Access Program for organizations interested in evaluating Rho-alpha. Robots that can adapt to dynamic situations and human preferences are more useful in real environments and more trusted by the people operating them.

VLA-JEPA just dropped in LeRobot 🤖 What makes this model special is that it does not just learn what action to take from a given observation, it also leverages a JEPA world model to learn action-relevant dynamics. During training, the VLA leverages V-JEPA2 by conditioning its predictor. This clever trick adds a world modeling objective to the training, which also allows pretraining on human videos. At inference, the world model is dropped entirely, keeping only a standard VLA architecture: Qwen backbone and action head. The demo here was only fine-tuned on 13 examples, showing great pretraining capability and running in real time on NVIDIA Robotics DGX Spark! VLA-JEPA is the first world model to be ported to LeRobot, and I feel like it won't be the last 🚀 Thomas Wolf clem 🤗

Scaling vision-language-action (VLA) models to high-DoF dexterous hands has long been a "holy grail" challenge due to the high-dimensional action space and data scarcity. As a wrap up of the year 2025, we are releasing GR-Dexter, a holistic hardware-model-data framework for generalist manipulation on a bimanual dexterous-hand robot. This is the first VLA system to achieve: ✅ High-DoF Control: Managing a 56-DoF bimanual system (21-DoF per hand). ✅ Long-Horizon Tasks with tool use: Vacuuming, bread serving with tongs, and table decluttering. ✅ Open-World Generalization: Robust performance with unseen objects and abstract instructions.

Furthermore, demonstrate that approach surpasses traditional imitation learning-based policies in Minecraft, achieving state-of-the-art performance.
