About this paper
RoboColosseum evaluates general robot policies across diverse embodiments and environments, revealing weak cross-embodiment agreement, limited open-world reliability, and substantial differences between zero-shot and fine-tuned performance.
General-purpose robot policies must work across robots, tasks, and environments, yet the variation that makes physical trials informative also makes them difficult to reproduce. We introduce RoboColosseum, a distributed evaluation framework that combines unified policy serving and standardized protocols across a network of locally operated robots in diverse environments. Our initial study evaluates five vision-language-action (VLA) policies and three frontier AI agents across four embodiments (SO-101, Franka, Bimanual-YAM, and G1 Humanoid). The Open Track compares models without task-specific adaptation in blinded, pairwise trials under matched local conditions. The Fine-tune Track…
