🎯Core Definition
embodied AI closes the loop between multimodal perception (VLM) and decision-making (RL): a world model provides imagined rollouts for MPC planning, policies are optimized by RL, and Diffusion Policy generates continuous action trajectories.
💡Use Cases
when embodied/robotics interviews cover the 'perception-to-action' pipeline, answer with RL-module knowledge.
⚡Key Problems Solved
continuous-action decision-making is delegated to the mature RL framework while the multimodal model handles perception, avoiding hard-to-train end-to-end coupling. See the RL module: world models, MPC, and RL policies in the RL module (guide model-based-rl-and-planning).
