Researchers have developed BURGER, a new benchmark for evaluating Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models in robotic tasks. This benchmark focuses on language-conditioned robotic drawing, utilizing a scalable pipeline to generate diverse drawing trajectories in both simulation and the real world. Experiments with five VLA models on 28,200 simulated demonstrations revealed that increased data scale and task diversity can improve model performance, enabling them to capture multimodal behaviors and generalize to new compositions. A trained policy was successfully deployed on a Franka Panda arm, demonstrating reactive drawing capabilities. AI
