Xiaomi-Robotics-1

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.

Model type

Developer wording: "We present Xiaomi-Robotics-1, a foundational vision-language-action (VLA) model".

Controls

"XR-1 is a Vision-Language-Action (VLA) foundation model for mobile manipulation".

Inputs

"The runtime client accepts three camera images, a natural-language instruction, and the current robot state".

Access

The repository says the model has been "open-sourced on Hugging Face".

Parameters

Note The released checkpoint is named "Xiaomi-Robotics-1-5B".

Base model

"The Qwen3-VL backbone is loaded from [Qwen/Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct]".

The developer’s own claims
Learns new tasksneeds retrainingD

Developer claim: "Xiaomi-Robotics-1 can learn new tasks with high data efficiency." New tasks are learned "from just a few hours of real-robot demonstrations per task"; the paper describes "efficiently adapting to novel downstream tasks with minimal fine-tuning data".

Works across robotsnot stated

Note The model is "post-trained on over 10K hours of cross-embodiment data". ⁠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.

Notes

  • Xiaomi calls Xiaomi-Robotics-1 a vision-language-action model; the project page is dated 16 July 2026.
  • Xiaomi describes it as a ready-to-use robot foundation model trained on over 100K hours of real-world manipulation trajectories.

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.
