| Where it runs and what it is built on | ||
| On robot or cloud | both | Technical report: one checkpoint reaches real-time performance "under both cloud computing (high network latency) and edge deployment". A |

| The developer’s own claims | ||
| Learns new tasks | needs retraining | Developer's own checkpoints for benchmarks are fine-tuned versions: "Post-trained on LIBERO benchmark". B |
| Works across robots | yes | Developer claim: "We empirically deploy a single checkpoint of Being-H0.5 to control PND Adam-U, Franka+Inspire, Unitree G1, BeingBeyond D1, and LeRobot SO-101". A Yes only if the developer itself says the model runs on different robot models, for example robots from two manufacturers or two of one manufacturer’s models. Several units of the same robot do not count. |
How to read the figures
- 50HzA
- The letter in the grey square after a figure points to the source the figure came from. Pages with several sources carry several letters.
Notes
- BeingBeyond publishes a 2B-parameter pretrained checkpoint and task-specific checkpoints on Hugging Face; the table marks the base one as a preview.
- BeingBeyond lists its Beijing address on its own website.
