Xiaomi-Robotics-1: Scaling Vision-Language-Action Models with over 100K Hours of Real-World Trajectories

We present Xiaomi-Robotics-1, a foundational vision-language-action (VLA) model capable of (1) following diverse language instructions to perform a wide range of mobile manipulation tasks in unseen environments out-of-the-box, and (2) efficiently adapting to novel downstream tasks with minimal fine-tuning data. We propose a two-stage training recipe consisting of pre-training and post-training. During pre-training, we imbue the model with broad and generalizable action-generation capabilities by training on over 100k hours of real-world manipulation trajectories collected via UMI devices. Crucially, we develop a scalable auto-labeling pipeline that annotates trajectory clips with natural languages describing scene state transitions, providing rich and precise conditioning for action learning. During post-training, we aim to align these capabilities with robot embodiments and imperative instructions that humans naturally use to prompt robots. Extensive experiments demonstrate strong scaling behavior. Xiaomi-Robotics-1 consistently improves with increased data scales and model sizes during pre-training. This scaling behavior directly transfers to post-training, where a stronger pre-training model yields better out-of-the-box real-robot performance in unseen environments. Furthermore, Xiaomi-Robotics-1 serves as a strong robot foundation policy that can be efficiently fine-tuned on complex, dexterous tasks with high data efficiency. Across multiple simulation benchmarks, Xiaomi-Robotics-1 outperforms state-of-the-art methods. Notably, it establishes a new state-of-the-art with a 57.4% success rate on RoboCasa365, surpassing the previous best of 46.6%. Furthermore, it achieves an average score of 20.07 on RoboDojo, significantly outperforming the prior state-of-the-art (13.07). Code and model checkpoints will be released.

MIRROR: Learning from the Other View for Multi-Modal Reasoning

Unlike large language models (LLMs) that exhibit strong reasoning capabilities, vision-language models (VLMs) struggle with visual reasoning, even on geometry problems that admit equivalent text, diagram, and combined diagram+text views. We show that these views often elicit different behaviors: a model may solve a problem from text but fail on the corresponding diagram, or succeed visually while failing textually. This inconsistency suggests that different views expose complementary reasoning paths and failure modes that standard multimodal post-training does not fully exploit. To study and exploit this phenomenon, we construct ODA-Data, a high-quality paired multimodal geometry dataset with text-dominant, image-dominant, and combined image+text views of the same problems, together with splits for training and evaluating modality-dependent reasoning behaviors. We then develop Modality-Informed Reciprocal Reasoning Optimization (MIRROR), a reinforcement learning approach for improving multimodal reasoning via self supervision. For each problem, MIRROR evaluates the model under all views, selects the best-performing view as a teacher, and trains other views with a reverse-KL objective towards the teacher. Across reasoning benchmarks that evaluate on geometry problems, MIRROR improves over standard RL and yields more accurate and consistent behavior across modalities
