Apple's research team published an arXiv paper detailing HALO, a humanoid robot autonomy stack that layers a VLM task orchestrator, a DiT motion generator, and a reinforcement-learning tracker, deployed on a Unitree G1 with an onboard Mac mini for inference. Across 360 single-task trials in six previously unmapped real environments, HALO averaged a 91% success rate, though long-horizon composite tasks fell to 70% and the hardest combination to 50%. The team also open-sourced the data generation, training, and deployment code.

    • HALO uses a three-tier stack: a VLM orchestrator, a DiT motion generator, and a 50Hz reinforcement-learning tracking policy.
    • It hit 91% average success over 360 single-task trials in six unmapped real environments, but long-horizon composite tasks averaged only 70%, with the hardest at 50%.
    • Training data was synthesized in about 48 hours on 250 H100 GPUs, the motion generator trained on 64 B200s, and the full pipeline code is open-sourced.
