## What stands out

- Open VLA for general-purpose humanoid manipulation: Continued pretraining of a VLM (UnifoLM-VLM-Base, Qwen2.5-VL based) on robot manipulation data to turn it into an 'embodied brain'; variants fine-tuned on Unitree open datasets and LIBERO. Source: https://huggingface.co/collections/unitreerobotics/unifolm-vla-0
- World-model-action architecture (WMA-0): UnifoLM-WMA-0 (Sept 2025, Apache-2.0) pairs a world model that predicts future interactions (usable as a simulator) with action generation; Base and Dual variants on HF. Source: https://huggingface.co/unitreerobotics/UnifoLM-WMA-0-Base
