DreamZero

An AI model: a world action model learns to predict how a scene will change and which actions lead there, so that a robot can plan its movements from what it expects to see. This page describes the software, not a robot.

Versions and notes in the key figures (6)

Model type

Developer wording: "DreamZero is a World Action Model that jointly predicts actions and videos, achieving strong zero-shot performance on unseen tasks."

Controls

Note Model card: "Outputs: Joint autoregressive prediction of future video frames and robot actions."

Inputs

Model card: "Inputs: Visual context (via VAE), language instructions (via text encoder), and proprioceptive state." Visual context = camera, language instructions = language, proprioceptive state = robot state.

Access

README: "We release a 14B pretrained DROID checkpoint on Huggingface". The README also lists the "Released DreamZero-AgiBot checkpoint and post-training code for efficient few-shot adaptation."

Parameters

Model card for the DROID checkpoint: "Parameters: 14 Billion"

Base model

Model card: "built upon a pretrained video diffusion backbone (Wan2.1-I2V-14B-480P)"

Control rate30HzB

Action execution rate in the paper's experiments: "at an action horizon of 48 steps at 30Hz control frequency (1.6 seconds per chunk) for bimanual manipulation robots". For the DROID checkpoint: "For DROID training, the video is sampled at 5FPS ratio and action is sampled at 15Hz." Action chunks are generated more slowly: "this 14B model is capable of real-time closed-loop control at ~7Hz".

The developer’s own claims
Learns new taskswithout examplesA

Developer claim: the DROID checkpoint is "achieving strong zero-shot performance on unseen tasks without requiring pretraining on massive, large-scale robot datasets".

Works across robotsnot stated

Note The paper tests two robots, "We validate our main hypotheses about learning from diverse data on two robot embodiments: the AgiBot G1 mobile bimanual manipulator and the Franka single-arm robot." "We pretrain separately for each embodiment, leaving multi-embodiment training for future work." It also reports that "a model pretrained on AgiBot G1 adapts to an entirely new robot (YAM) with only 30 minutes of play data". ⁠B

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.
