Apple Discloses HALO System for Humanoid Robots

苹果披露人形机器人 HALO 系统:6 个未建图环境测试 360 次单项任务,平均成功率 91%

Summary

Apple's research team submitted a preprint on arXiv detailing the HALO autonomous control system for humanoid robots. The system utilizes an onboard Mac mini (M4 Pro) running a Visual Language Model (VLM) and a Diffusion Transformer (DiT) for task orchestration and motion generation, while a dedicated chip runs a Reinforcement Learning (RL) policy network for high-frequency action tracking. Tests were conducted on Unitree G1 robots in six unscanned environments, achieving an average success rate of 91% across 360 single tasks. For complex multi-step tasks, the average success rate was 70%, with a specific 'crouch-obstacle-crossing-push-box' sequence succeeding in 5 out of 10 attempts. The team used 250 H100 GPUs to synthesize training data and noted that current reliance on vision limits performance when objects are occluded or contact is not directly observable.
