Embodied-R1.5: Evolving Physical Intelligence via Embodied Foundation Models
arXiv.orgWe introduce Embodied-R1.5, a unified Embodied Foundation Model (EFM) that integrates comprehensive embodied reasoning capabilities, spanning embodied cognition, task planning, correction, and pointing, within a single architecture toward general physical intelligence. Leveraging three automated data construction pipelines to significantly expand the data coverage of critical capabilities, we build a large-scale data system of over 15B tokens, and design a multi-task balanced RL recipe to alleviate heterogeneous task conflicts. We further introduce a Planner-Grounder-Corrector (PGC) closed-loop framework that enables a single model to autonomously execute and self-correct over long-horizon tasks. With only 8B parameters, Embodied-R1.5 achieves SOTA on 16 out of 24 embodied VLM benchmarks, surpassing leading models like Gemini-Robotics-ER-1.5 and GPT-5.4. Benefiting from the internalized embodied capabilities, Embodied-R1.5 can be fine-tuned into a VLA with only a small amount of data, outperforming leading VLA models like $π_{0.5}$ across 4 popular manipulation benchmark suites. We further conduct extensive zero-shot real-robot experiments, validating performance in instruction following, affordance grounding, articulated object manipulation, and long-horizon complex tasks, demonstrating strong generalization to the physical world. We open-source model weights, datasets, training code, and EmbodiedEvalKit, an evaluation framework tailored for embodied tasks, to facilitate future research in EFMs.
Open sourceRecommended because
This is worth tracking because it is a concrete research signal, not just a passing headline. The source preview points to a research result, method, evaluation, dataset, or safety finding. For builders and operators, "Embodied-R1.5: Evolving Physical Intelligence via Embodied Foundation Models" can be used as a checkpoint for technical due diligence, roadmap bets, agent design, and evaluation strategy. I keep this thread indexed so future searches around AI research papers, technical methods, and applied AI systems can land on a source-linked page instead of disappearing into a fast-moving feed from arXiv.org.
