RoboScope Kit: Unified Interfaces for Fast and Scalable Embodied-AI Evaluation

Abstract

Simulation benchmarks are the standard way to compare robot policies, but each benchmark brings its own evaluator, observation layout, and action convention, and evaluation is slow: 500 RoboTwin Easy episodes with one simulator and one model on one GPU take 359.7 minutes. Profiling the official StarVLA evaluator shows that simulation occupies CPU cores while the GPU averages 14.3% utilization. RoboScope Kit wraps each model once in a Python class called a Policy, and each benchmark once in an adapter around the benchmark's own evaluator, so the benchmark's rules and scoring stay unchanged. Scheduling runs simulator workers and Policy replicas as separate pools, sizes both from measured probes, and shards work deterministically across GPU instances; runtime optimization renders only the observations an action-chunk Policy reads. Adapters cover six benchmark families. On LIBERO-Long with a StarVLA checkpoint on one 48 GiB RTX 4090, the concurrency search selects twelve simulator workers sharing three Policy replicas, which evaluate 500 episodes 4.45$\times$ faster than the official StarVLA evaluation with equivalent success rates, 2.78$\times$ faster than RLinf, and 1.52$\times$ faster than vla-eval at its tuned configuration. With CUDA MPS, which lets the replicas run their kernels concurrently, the search selects sixteen workers sharing four replicas, 6.16$\times$ faster than StarVLA, 3.85$\times$ faster than RLinf, and 2.10$\times$ faster than vla-eval. On RoboTwin Easy, four GPUs with chunk-boundary observation complete the 500 episodes in 14.4 minutes, 25.04$\times$ faster than the single-GPU baseline, with identical success outcomes and terminal steps.
