We present PhysBrain 1.5, a unified model for understanding physical environments, generating actions, and predicting future states. Motivated by the physical loop of observation, interaction, and environmental change, we bring these capabilities into a common learning framework. Starting from a general vision--language model, we encode language responses, end-effector motion, and dense visual targets as discrete sequences and jointly optimize them with autoregressive next-token prediction. Pre-training draws its embodied supervision entirely from human interaction videos, using task-centered episodes to pair semantic and spatial context with recovered motion and subsequent observations. We then adapt the model through supervised fine-tuning on a mixture of human demonstrations, robot trajectories, and simulated experience. Across 28 embodied understanding benchmarks, our 8B model achieves an average score of 72.5, setting a new open-source state of the art and performing on par with leading proprietary models such as GPT-6-Astra and Gemini 3.6 Flash. It achieves the best open-source results on 14 benchmarks while retaining general multimodal capabilities. Beyond these understanding evaluations, qualitative examples show the model's ability to produce end-effector trajectories and predict future scenes through spatially aligned RGB, depth, and robot-mask outputs.

Although world-action models (WAMs) enhance long-horizon robot control by predicting visual evolution before acting, long-horizon reliability demands repeated re-grounding in real observations--not recursive rollout. Existing WAMs address this by refreshing history or KV cache with ground-truth data between chunks. However, such chunk-wise feedback operates at a coarse temporal granularity and thus fails to correct prediction errors at the individual time-step level. To address this, we propose Feedback Flow Matching (FBFM), a training-free inference mechanism that pushes re-grounding inside the actively generated chunk. During flow matching, FBFM applies a masked pseudoinverse correction to the conditional velocity field: it leverages the preceding action chunk to guide generation of the next action chunk, and uses the image observed after executing that preceding chunk to guide the next frame prediction. This cross-chunk pairing--where feedback from one chunk arrives in time to shape the next--creates an asynchronous loop that corrects errors without waiting for chunk boundaries. Being training-free, the mechanism improves responsiveness to unexpected events and suppresses drift in long-horizon tasks. We evaluate FBFM on both a joint-generation WAM (DreamZero) and a stage-wise WAM (LingBot-VA). On selected LIBERO and RoboTwin2.0 tasks, it improves success rates by over 5% in favorable settings, and real-world robot observation-prediction diagnostics show notably better tracking. We argue that FBFM offers a new paradigm for fine-grained online correction, bridging open-loop flow generation with closed-loop real-world dynamics.
