The model is open source and features 4.7 billion parameters designed to unify physical intelligence. By separating the robot’s thought process from movement control, the system eliminates common delays and allows for smooth, human-like actions in real time.
Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun officially announced the launch of Xiaomi-Robotics-0, the company’s first large model designed to help robots understand and interact with the physical world. Unlike many other companies that keep their bots private and secret, Xiaomi is releasing this new system as an open source project so that everyone can use it to build better bots. The release includes computer code and mathematical models, and is now available for researchers and developers to download and use on various types of Android devices.
The model uses a special design that divides the work between your brain for thinking and a separate part for controlling movement by building on the Qwen3 language model. The team trained this model using a huge amount of data, including about 200 million distinct robot movements and more than 80 million generic images and text examples. This extensive training allows the robot to understand complex instructions and recognize objects in the real world while planning its physical actions with high precision.
This new model solves a common problem where robots stop to think before they move because it allows the robot to plan its next moves while still finishing the current ones. Xiaomi uses a technology called Lambda-shaped mask, which ensures that the robot moves smoothly based on its previous actions but remains ready to react to new visual information immediately. Tests show that this new system performs very well in computer simulations, achieving a success rate of nearly 99 percent in the LIBERO benchmark, much higher than many competing models.
Xiaomi also showed off the robot performing difficult tasks in the real world, such as disassembling complex Lego structures made up of up to 20 cubes or folding towels with human-like skill. The robot is smart enough to flick a towel to find a hidden corner or even return an extra towel if it accidentally picks up two at once.
