ArXi:2605.02037v1 Announce Type: cross We present VILAS, a fully low-cost, modular robotic manipulation platform designed to end-to-end vision-language-action (VLA) policy learning and deployment on accessible hardware. The system integrates a Fairino FR5 collaborative arm, a Jodell RG52-50 electric gripper, and a dual-camera perception module, unified through a ZMQ-based communication architecture that seamlessly coordinates teleoperation, data collection, and policy deployment within a single framework.
