🔥 Updates
- `[2026-07]` 🎉 We release Hy-Embodied-RxBrain-1.0 — the technical report, official inference code, and model weights.
📖 Introduction
RxBrain (Hy-Embodied-RxBrain-1.0) is a unified multimodal foundation model for embodied cognition — a single model that couples language reasoning with visual imagination to deliver three core capabilities:
- 🤖 Embodied Understanding & Reasoning — question answering and chain-of-thought over images and multi-frame video.
- 🔮 World State Prediction — imagine the near-future frames an action produces in the physical world.
- 🧩 Joint Subgoal Planning — decompose a task into steps, emitting for each step both the next action (language) and the goal image it should reach (vision).
These capabilities are unified through interleaved generation: within a single autoregressive sequence RxBrain alternates reasoning text and flow-matched imagined frames — a learned <Image> token decides when to imagine — so an embodied plan couples what to do with what the world should look like, step by step.
⭐️ Key Features
- 🧠 Unified Mixture-of-Transformers (MoT): A ~6.2B-parameter backbone with modality-specific pathways (text / vision / generation), so understanding and image synthesis share one autoregressive model instead of separate towers.
- 🎨 Flow-Matching Image Head: Imagined frames are produced by a flow-matching head decoding into a frozen FLUX VAE latent space, enabling text-to-image, multi-frame world-model rollout, and goal-image planning.
- 🔗 Interleaved Reasoning + Imagination: Text reasoning and generated frames are emitted in one sequence, coupling symbolic plans with visual goals.
📋 TODO
- [ ] Open-source RxBrain-Bench, a comprehensive benchmark for embodied cognition.
- [ ] Open-source the fine-tuning code for Visual Question Answering (VQA), Multi Frames Generation, and Interleave Generation.
- [x] Release the technical report, inference code, and model weights.
🛠️ Dependencies and Installation
Prerequisites
- 🖥️ Operating System: Linux (recommended)
- 🐍 Python: 3.10+
- ⚡ CUDA: 12.x, an NVIDIA GPU (required for
flash-attn) - 🔥 PyTorch: 2.10
Installation
- Install the specific Transformers version required for this model (it provides the
hunyuan_vl_motbackbone thatunified_motbuilds on):
pip install git+https://github.com/huggingface/transformers@9293856c419762ebf98fbe2bd9440f9ce7069f1aNote: A stocktransformersrelease does not yet includehunyuan_vl_mot; this pinned commit is required. We will merge the improvements into the Transformers main branch later.
- Clone the inference code and install the remaining dependencies:
git clone https://github.com/Tencent-Hunyuan/Hy-Embodied-RxBrain-1.0.git
cd Hy-Embodied-RxBrain-1.0
pip install -r requirements.txtModel Download
Download the weights to a local directory — the loader reads the checkpoint files directly, so --ckpt must be a local path, not the Hub repo id:
pip install -U "huggingface_hub[cli]"
hf download tencent/Hy-Embodied-RxBrain-1.0 --local-dir ./Hy-Embodied-RxBrain-1.0The VQA (understanding) path needs only the main weights. Image generation (T2I / world-model rollout / interleaved planning) additionally requires the external FLUX VAE ae.safetensors.
🚀 Quick Start with Transformers
Load the Transformers processor together with the UnifiedMoT classes shipped in this repo, then run understanding (VQA). Run this from the repo root so the model package is importable, and point MODEL_PATH at your local download (see Model Download).
import torch
from transformers.models.hunyuan_vl_mot import HunYuanVLMoTProcessor
from model import UnifiedMoTForConditionalGeneration, maybe_init_generation_path
from vqa_inference import answer
MODEL_PATH = "./Hy-Embodied-RxBrain-1.0" # local checkpoint directory, not the Hub id
device = torch.device("cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu")
dtype = torch.bfloat16
# Load processor & model
processor = HunYuanVLMoTProcessor.from_pretrained(MODEL_PATH, trust_remote_code=True)
model = UnifiedMoTForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(MODEL_PATH, dtype=dtype)
maybe_init_generation_path(model, model_load_path=MODEL_PATH) # wires up the generation path
model.to(device).eval()
# Ask a question about an image
text = answer(
model, processor,
image_paths=["demo_cases/bridgev2_move_toy/input/obs_1.jpg"],
question="What objects are on the stovetop, and where is the green toy?",
device=device, dtype=dtype, max_new_tokens=256,
)
print(text)Note: RxBrain uses a custom interleaved text/image decoding loop rather than the standardmodel.generateAPI. Theanswer(...)helper (invqa_inference.py) wraps that loop for the understanding case; image generation and planning have their own entry points below.
The same tasks are also available as ready-to-run scripts:
