ARSTAG is presented, an agentic Real2Sim2Real system that turns a single RGB image and a natural-language instruction directly into robot policy-learning data and shows that task-consistent randomization substantially improves robustness, and policy performance increases with generated dataset size.

Abstract

Adapting visuomotor policies to new manipulation tasks often requires substantial manual engineering or teleoperated data collection. Simulation can provide task-specific data at scale, but constructing the scene, designing expert behavior, and configuring data generation still require significant per-task effort. We present ARSTAG, an agentic Real2Sim2Real system that turns a single RGB image and a natural-language instruction directly into robot policy-learning data. A hierarchy of language agents constructs a task-scoped simulation scene, generates robot-feasible demonstrations, and expands the training distribution through task-consistent randomization, while a coordinator agent manages cross-stage feedback and recovery. Across seven manipulation tasks spanning grasping, placement, and stacking, the ARSTAG-generated demonstrations enable sim-to-real transfer of three visuomotor policy architectures to a dual-arm robot, with pi0.5 achieving an average real-world success rate of 74.6%. Ablations show that task-consistent randomization substantially improves robustness, and policy performance increases with generated dataset size.

Agent as Policy for Robotic Manipulation

This work demonstrates that a general-purpose agent can directly drive a physical robot throughout task execution without any task-specific or environment-specific training and introduces Agent as Policy (AGP), which places task planning and execution under the agent's control.

EmbodiRSI: Recursive Self-Improvement for Data-Efficient Robot Adaptation

Adapting robot manipulation policies to new tasks and environments remains highly data-intensive, while the data needed for further improvement depends on the policy's current capabilities and failure modes. We introduce EmbodiRSI, an agentic system for recursive self-improvement (RSI) in a real-to-sim-to-real setting,...
