# OpenVLA, brain

An academic open-source vision-language-action model at 7B parameters. Multi-developer collaboration across Stanford, UC Berkeley, Toyota Research Institute, and Google DeepMind. Listed here as a research-model entity; architectural details should be firmed against the OpenVLA paper at build.

- **Slug:** openvla
- **Type:** Research model
- **Maturity (DEPLOY ladder):** Research
- **Open source:** yes

## Architecture

7B-parameter VLA. Architecture and training-data details pending firmer primary-source confirmation (OpenVLA paper at openvla.github.io and arXiv).


## Key facts

- **Thin-record depth note:** Architecture, parameter count, training-data composition should be firmed against the OpenVLA paper at openvla.github.io / arXiv. Entity carries verified-vs-claimed framing until firmed.
- **Multi-developer collaboration:** Stanford + UC Berkeley + Toyota Research Institute + Google DeepMind (only Google DeepMind is attached as a registry developer; the academic institutions are not registry Companies)
- **Powered platforms:** Research robot platforms; not a commercial-deployment brain
