Hy-Embodied-VLM-1.0

An AI model: a vision-language-action model (VLA) takes camera images and an instruction and turns them into movements for a robot. This page describes the software, not a robot.

How to read the figures
14kgA30.9lbA
The letter in the grey square after a figure points to the source the figure came from. Robots with several sources carry several letters.
74.5lb
Imperial figures are our own conversion unless the manufacturer states an imperial figure itself. The source letter always belongs to the metric figure — a conversion has no source of its own.
Versions and notes in the key figures (6)

Model type

Note The developer calls it something else and does not label it vision-language-action, world action model or embodied reasoning: "An efficient Mixture-of-Experts vision–language foundation model for embodied agents in the physical world".

Controls

Note The model gives text answers, plans and navigation decisions, not robot motion: "Hy-Embodied-VLM-1.0 powers closed-loop navigation with a single model for language grounding, spatial memory, planning, and goal verification."

Inputs

The model card lists the vision inputs as "Image (up to 128 per prompt)".

Access

"Weights are available on" Hugging Face.

Parameters

Tencent gives an approximate total, "~30B total". "Only ~3B parameters are activated per token".

Base model

Tencent's description: "Combines the Hy3-A3B language backbone with the Hy-ViT2 vision encoder".

Works across robotsnot stated

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

  • Tencent describes Hy-Embodied-VLM-1.0 as an embodied foundation model for agents in the physical world; it was released on 15 July 2026.
  • Tencent says the model powers closed-loop navigation with language grounding, spatial memory, planning and goal verification.
  • The model is a Mixture-of-Experts vision-language model built by Tencent Robotics X, the Hy Vision Team and Futian Laboratory.

One line per source, not per figure: a source has one retrieval date. The letter beside a figure points to the line it came from.
