Article Summary

General-purpose multimodal models, including GPT-6 Astra and Claude Opus 5.5, demonstrate broad capabilities in embodied manipulation. Our analysis indicates that this generality is accompanied by strong spatial perception, as Astra can determine where to interact with task-relevant entities amid visual distractors. Because spatial perception connects high-level reasoning to the physical scene, we investigate scaling visual grounding to strengthen the perceptual foundation of general embodied operation. We develop a unified data pipeline that combines robot manipulation recordings with complementary visual data from diverse sources. After automatically annotating the robot recordings, the pipeline converts the collected data into verifiable grounding supervision. Fine-tuning Qwen3.5-9B on approximately 1.5 million samples produced by this pipeline yields ACE-Brain-0.6. The model outperforms GPT-6 Astra on four of seven public grounding benchmarks, with an overall average score of 75.41 compared with Astra's 73.68. Under a fixed Qwen3.5-9B fine-tuning setup, aggregate grounding performance improves steadily as successive data releases expand the training collection to cover a broader range of grounding scenarios. These results show that scaling verifiable grounding supervision from diverse sources can strengthen the spatial perception of an open 9B model for general embodied operation.
