This monograph seeks to define physical AI, present its technical landscape, and examine each key technical subfield in depth, and establishes a unified framework for Physical AI: artificial systems that perceive, model, and act upon the physical world through continuous feedback under real-world constraints.

Vision-language navigation requires agents to follow natural-language instructions to reach target locations, making high-quality language supervision essential. Since human annotation is costly, prior work has explored scalable data synthesis methods. However, existing methods typically either use separate models for...

Causal Imprint is introduced, which learns future-relevant scene changes from training-only future supervision and provides predictive representations directly to the action expert without future-video rollout at inference.

This work dissects advantage-guided VLA post-training through a controlled empirical study that separates these design choices while accounting for their distinct estimands, and develops stage-specific offline evaluation methods to screen alternative choices efficiently, without requiring extensive real-robot policy ev...

InternVLA-A1.5 is presented, which builds the policy on a native VLM backbone that keeps training on VQA and subtask prediction, and attaches a lightweight unified expert for continuous action generation, and achieves the best overall results on all six simulation benchmarks.
