The scalability of robotic manipulation is fundamentally bottlenecked by the scarcity of task-aligned physical interaction data. While vision-language models (VLMs) and video generation models (VGMs) hold promise for autonomous data synthesis, they suffer from semantic-spatial misalignment and physical hallucinations, respectively. To bridge this gap, we introduce RoboEvolve, a novel framework that couples a VLM planner and a VGM simulator into a mutually reinforcing co-evolutionary loop. Operating purely on unlabeled seed images, RoboEvolve leverages a cognitive-inspired dual-phase mechanism: (i) daytime exploration fosters physically grounded behavioral discovery through a semantic-controlled multi-granular reward, and (ii) nighttime consolidation mines "near-miss" failures to stabilize policy optimization. Guided by an autonomous progressive curriculum, the system naturally scales from simple atomic actions to complex tasks. Extensive experiments demonstrate that RoboEvolve (I) achieves superior effectiveness, elevating base planners by 30 absolute points and amplifying simulator success by 48% on average; (II) exhibits extreme data efficiency, surpassing fully supervised baselines with merely 500 unlabeled seeds--a 50x reduction; and (III) demonstrates robust continual learning without catastrophic forgetting.
The development of robust and generalizable robot learning models is critically contingent upon the availability of large-scale, diverse training data and reliable evaluation benchmarks. Collecting data in the physical world poses prohibitive costs and scalability challenges, and prevailing simulation benchmarks frequently suffer from fragmentation, narrow scope, or insufficient fidelity to enable effective sim-to-real transfer. To address these challenges, we introduce Genie Sim 3.0, a unified simulation platform for robotic manipulation. We present Genie Sim Generator, a large language model (LLM)-powered tool that constructs high-fidelity scenes from natural language instructions. Its principal strength resides in rapid and multi-dimensional generalization, facilitating the synthesis of diverse environments to support scalable data collection and robust policy evaluation. We introduce the first benchmark that pioneers the application of LLM for automated evaluation. It leverages LLM to mass-generate evaluation scenarios and employs Vision-Language Model (VLM) to establish an automated assessment pipeline. We also release an open-source dataset comprising more than 10,000 hours of synthetic data across over 200 tasks. Through systematic experimentation, we validate the robust zero-shot sim-to-real transfer capability of our open-source dataset, demonstrating that synthetic data can server as an effective substitute for real-world data under controlled conditions for scalable policy training.

The recent trend in scaling models for robot learning has resulted in impressive policies that can perform various manipulation tasks and generalize to novel scenarios. However, these policies continue to struggle with following instructions, likely due to the limited linguistic and action sequence diversity in existing robotics datasets. This paper introduces Task Robustness via Re-Labelling Vision-Action Robot Data (TREAD), a scalable framework that leverages large Vision-Language Models (VLMs) to augment existing robotics datasets without additional data collection, harnessing the transferable knowledge embedded in these models. Our approach leverages a pretrained VLM through three stages: generating semantic sub-tasks from original instruction labels and initial scenes, segmenting demonstration videos conditioned on these sub-tasks, and producing diverse instructions that incorporate object properties, effectively decomposing longer demonstrations into grounded language-action pairs. We further enhance robustness by augmenting the data with linguistically diverse versions of the text goals. Evaluations on LIBERO demonstrate that policies trained on our augmented datasets exhibit improved performance on novel, unseen tasks and goals. Our results show that TREAD enhances both planning generalization through trajectory decomposition and language-conditioned policy generalization through increased linguistic diversity.
Scaling data volume and diversity is critical for generalizing embodied intelligence. While synthetic data generation offers a scalable alternative to expensive physical data acquisition, transferring robotic manipulation policies from simulation to the real world (sim-to-real) remains a formidable challenge due to the domain gap. This paper presents HyperSim, a holistic framework spanning from synthetic data generation to policy training and seamless real-world deployment. To systematically bridge the sim-to-real gap, HyperSim is realized through three core pillars: high-fidelity environment synthesis, adversarial trajectory generation, and sim-and-real co-training. Collectively, these modules address domain discrepancies by enhancing visual fidelity, expanding data coverage, and enforcing domain-invariant representations. We rigorously validate HyperSim through a large-scale empirical study involving 400 real-world task executions across two representative manipulation models. Assessed across three fine-grained metrics, our complete pipeline achieves remarkable sim-to-real success rates of 80% and 95% with ACT and π_{0}, respectively. Furthermore, policies trained on our adversarial trajectories exhibit significantly enhanced robustness against dynamic uncertainties, achieving a 35% higher completion rate under physical perturbations.
