Being-H0.5: Scaling Human-Centric Robot Learning for Cross-Embodiment Generalization

Being-H0.5 is a foundational VLA model that scales human-centric learning with UniHand-2.0 and a unified action space to enable robust cross-embodiment robot control.

Setup

Clone repository

git clone https://github.com/BeingBeyond/Being-H05.git
cd Being-H05

Create environment

conda create -n beingh python=3.10
conda activate beingh

Install package

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation

Inference

Quick Start

Use the pretrained or post-trained model for robot policy inference:

from BeingH.inference.beingh_policy import BeingHPolicy

# Load model
policy = BeingHPolicy(
    model_path="/path/to/Being-H05-2B_libero",
    device="cuda:0"
)

# Get action from observation
action = policy.predict(
    images=images,
    state=robot_state,
    instruction="task prompt"
)

Inference Server

Start an inference server for real-time robot control:

python BeingH/inference/service.py \
    --model_path /path/to/Being-H05-2B_libero \
    --port 8000 \
    --device cuda:0

Evaluation on Benchmarks

Evaluate the model on LIBERO benchmark:

python BeingH/benchmark/libero/eval_libero.py \
    --model_path /path/to/Being-H05-2B_libero \
    --suite libero_spatial \
    --num_episodes 50

Evaluate the model on RoboCasa benchmark:

python BeingH/benchmark/robocasa/eval_robocasa.py \
    --model_path /path/to/Being-H05-2B_robocasa \
    --task PnPCounterToCab \
    --num_episodes 50

Training

Post-Training on Custom Data

Post-train the pretrained model on your own robot data:

torchrun --nproc_per_node=8 BeingH/train/train.py \
    --mllm_path /path/to/InternVL3_5-2B \
    --expert_path /path/to/Qwen3-0.6B \
    --resume_from /path/to/Being-H05-2B \
    --resume_model_only True \
    --dataset_config_file configs/posttrain/libero/libero_all.yaml \
    --output_dir /path/to/output \
    --max_steps 30000 \
    --save_steps 10000 \
    --learning_rate 1e-4 \
    --action_chunk_length 16

Contributing and Building on Being-H05

We encourage researchers and practitioners to leverage Being-H05 as a foundation for their own experiments and applications. Whether you're adapting Being-H05 to new robotic platforms, exploring novel manipulation tasks, or extending the model to new domains, our modular codebase is designed to support your innovations. We welcome contributions of all kinds - from bug fixes and documentation improvements to new features and model architectures. By building on Being-H05 together, we can advance the field of vision-language-action modeling and enable robots to perform more complex and diverse manipulation tasks. Join us in making robotic manipulation more capable, robust, and accessible to all.
