Researchers have developed Realtime-VLA FLASH, a new framework designed to speed up diffusion-based vision-language-action models (dVLAs) for embodied intelligence tasks. The system uses a lightweight draft model for speculative inference, significantly reducing the need for full, slower inference calls during replanning. This approach achieved a 3.04x speedup on the LIBERO benchmark, lowering average inference latency to 19.1 ms while maintaining task performance, and has also shown promise in real-world applications like conveyor-belt sorting.
