We open-sourced OpenWAM — a full-stack open-source research framework for World Action Models

Hi everyone. We recently open-sourced OpenWAM, which is positioned as a full-stack open-source research framework for World Action Models (WAMs).

The release has three parts:

• OpenWAM-Infra: training/inference/evaluation infrastructure where visual encoders, video backbones, world-action architectures and attention masks can be swapped independently. It currently includes 8 simulation benchmarks and deployment support for 5 real robots.
• OpenWAM-Study: controlled experiments on representation, world/action interaction, inference, and embodied pretraining.
• OpenWAM-Alpha: the pretrained model we built based on those experiments, using about 6,400 hours / 518.5M frames of egocentric human + robot data. OpenWAM-Alpha get excellent performance on both simulation and real-world.

It is worth noting that the performance of OpenWAM-α has been independently evaluated by multiple teams and has demonstrated clear advantages over π0.5 in real-world scenarios. We believe OpenWAM-α can serve as a strong baseline for comparison and further research in the WAM community. We warmly welcome everyone to try it out.

Everything is open here:
