Researchers have developed Chronos Policy, a novel approach for robot control that explicitly incorporates physical time into its decision-making process. This method addresses limitations in traditional robot policies that implicitly rely on fixed-rate sequences, which can fail when timing varies. By conditioning on observation capture times and desired action execution times, Chronos Policy enhances robustness and performance, particularly in dynamic and multi-sensory tasks. The system utilizes time-aware rotary positional encodings within a diffusion transformer architecture to effectively manage asynchronous data and varying inference latencies. AI
