SmolVLA: Piper hexagonal bolt insertion (80 zero-home demos)

Fine-tuned from lerobot/smolvla_base on Samisaliveagain/piper-hexagonal-bolt-insertion-80-demos-zero-home-v1 (AgileX Piper, 7-D absolute joint-position actions: 6 joints in degrees + gripper in mm).

Camera mapping: overhead -> observation.images.camera1, angled -> observation.images.camera2. Task prompt: "Pick up the hexagonal bolt and place it in the matching opening."

  • Action expert only (VLM frozen), 20k steps, batch 32 (~12.6 epochs), lr 1e-4 cosine to 20k, fp16 mixed precision
  • chunk_size 50, n_action_steps 50, 10 flow-matching steps
  • Inference: ~1.8 GB VRAM, ~290 ms per action chunk on a Quadro RTX 6000
