Researchers have developed CHORUS, a new framework that enables decentralized collaboration among multiple robots using a single vision-language-action (VLA) model. This approach allows each robot to operate independently, relying solely on its own observations and a robot-identifying prompt, eliminating the need for explicit alignment or real-time communication between robots. Experiments demonstrated that CHORUS significantly outperforms existing decentralized models and even surpasses centralized baselines in tasks like mobile tape measurement and laundry basket lifting.
