Hugging Face's compact 450M parameter VLA model for accessible robotics. Part of the LeRobot framework, designed for low-compute training and deployment on consumer hardware.

SmolVLA is credited to Hugging Face on the DEPLOY registry. Each developer attribution is verified via primary sources.

Yes. SmolVLA is recorded as open-source / open-weights on the DEPLOY registry, meaning model weights or source code are publicly available.

SmolVLA is a foundation model, built on a Compact VLA, 450M params architecture on the DEPLOY registry.

SmolVLA is at the research stage on the DEPLOY maturity ladder. Research stage means active development without commercial deployments on file.

No robot models on the DEPLOY registry are recorded as running SmolVLA. DEPLOY wires brain-to-model connections only when the wiring is verifiable from primary sources; absence may reflect pre-deployment or unverified manufacturer claims.
