+
+
+## 🚀 Overview
+
+Successful generalist **Vision-Language-Action (VLA)** models rely on effective training across diverse robotic platforms with large-scale, cross-embodiment, heterogeneous datasets.
+To facilitate and leverage the heterogeneity in rich robotic data sources, **X-VLA** introduces a **Soft Prompt approach** with minimally added parameters: we infuse prompt-learning concepts into cross-embodiment robot learning, introducing **separate sets of learnable embeddings** for each distinct embodiment.
+
+These embodiment-specific prompts empower VLA models to exploit cross-embodiment features effectively.
+Our architecture—**a clean, flow-matching-based VLA design relying exclusively on soft-prompted standard Transformers**—achieves superior scalability and simplicity.
+
+Trained on **Bridge Data** and evaluated across **six simulations** and **three real-world robots**, the 0.9B-parameter X-VLA simultaneously achieves **state-of-the-art performance** across diverse benchmarks, demonstrating flexible dexterity and fast adaptation across embodiments, environments, and tasks.
