EmbodiedClaw: Conversational Workflow Execution for Embodied AI Development

Embodied AI research is increasingly moving beyond single-task, single-environment policy learning toward multi-task, multi-scene, and multi-model settings. This shift substantially increases the engineering overhead and development time required for stages such as evaluation environment construction, trajectory collection, model training, and evaluation. To address this challenge, we propose a new paradigm for embodied AI development in which users express goals and constraints through conversation, and the system automatically plans and executes the development workflow. We instantiate this paradigm with EmbodiedClaw, a conversational agent that turns high-frequency, high-cost embodied research activities, including environment creation and revision, benchmark transformation, trajectory synthesis, model evaluation, and asset expansion, into executable skills. Experiments on end-to-end workflow tasks, capability-specific evaluations, human researcher studies, and ablations show that EmbodiedClaw reduces manual engineering effort while improving executability, consistency, and reproducibility. These results suggest a shift from manual toolchains to conversationally executable workflows for embodied AI development.

The RoboSense Challenge: Sense Anything, Navigate Anywhere, Adapt Across Platforms

Autonomous systems are increasingly deployed in open and dynamic environments -- from city streets to aerial and indoor spaces -- where perception models must remain reliable under sensor noise, environmental variation, and platform shifts. However, even state-of-the-art methods often degrade under unseen conditions, highlighting the need for robust and generalizable robot sensing. The RoboSense 2025 Challenge is designed to advance robustness and adaptability in robot perception across diverse sensing scenarios. It unifies five complementary research tracks spanning language-grounded decision making, socially compliant navigation, sensor configuration generalization, cross-view and cross-modal correspondence, and cross-platform 3D perception. Together, these tasks form a comprehensive benchmark for evaluating real-world sensing reliability under domain shifts, sensor failures, and platform discrepancies. RoboSense 2025 provides standardized datasets, baseline models, and unified evaluation protocols, enabling large-scale and reproducible comparison of robust perception methods. The challenge attracted 143 teams from 85 institutions across 16 countries, reflecting broad community engagement. By consolidating insights from 23 winning solutions, this report highlights emerging methodological trends, shared design principles, and open challenges across all tracks, marking a step toward building robots that can sense reliably, act robustly, and adapt across platforms in real-world environments.
