What it controlsNot stated
Source and note: What it controlsA huggingface.co/openbmb/MiniCPM-RobotTrack · Retrieved 9 November 2026Note. The model predicts waypoints for the robot's path, not motor commands: it “directly predicts eight future [x, y, yaw] waypoints for embodied person following”. The README deploys it on a Unitree Go2 quadruped.

Source and note: Works across robotsC github.com/OpenBMB/MiniCPM-Robot/blob/main/MiniCPM-RobotTrack/docs/GO2_DEPLOYMENT.md · Retrieved 9 November 2026Note. OpenBMB names one supported robot: “Supported hardware is limited to Go2 EDU, Orin NX 16GB, and D435i.”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.
Notes
OpenBMB describes MiniCPM-RobotTrack on Hugging Face as a compact vision-language-action model built on MiniCPM4-0.5B for target tracking.
MiniCPM-RobotTrack is one of the two first models of the MiniCPM-Robot family; the other is MiniCPM-RobotManip.
