Embodied Intelligence Begins to Evolve Systems: RoboFoundry Enables Robot Autonomous Evolution

具身智能开始卷系统了:RoboFoundry让机器人自主进化

Summary

RoboFoundry is a new framework for embodied agents that treats the entire system as a self-evolving policy. By freezing the base model and allowing the surrounding system to evolve, it achieves significant improvements in task success rates across benchmarks like EmbodiedBench, RoboMemArena, and LIBERO-PRO. The system enables zero-shot transfer and online evolution on real robots, with results showing substantial performance gains compared to baselines.

Editorial context

RoboFoundry introduces a novel framework for self-evolving embodied agents by treating the entire system as a policy. It enables continuous improvement through task execution, reflection, and adaptation, with results showing significant performance gains across multiple benchmarks and real-world robots.

图 3 是一次进化过程示例,在 EB-Habitat 的空间关系子集上,基座模型为 GPT-5.5,共经过六次候选评估: 前三次修改被提交,held-in 成功率从 21.4% 升至 50.0%; 接下来两个候选只达到 42.9%,未被采纳; 最后一个候选把成功率推到 78.0%,并通过了 held-out 检查,被标记为晋升进通用系统。

进化后的 GPT-5.5(72.7%)已经高于未经进化的 GPT-6 Astra(71.9%)。

Open source S22

GPT-5.5 相对提升 27.8% 。

Open source S21

GPT-6 Astra 相对提升 8.5%。

消融实验显示,通用进化是关键:以 Qwen3.7-Plus 为基座时,完整版比只保留任务级修改的 Lite 版相对高出 11.2%。

Open source S24

实验中,RoboFoundry 在 EmbodiedBench 上让五个基座模型全部取得提升;在长程记忆基准 RoboMemArena 上,任务成功率比所有基线至少高出 39.0%;在 LIBERO-PRO 的扰动测试中,比 CaP-Agent0 高出 243.8–679.7%。
