ACT: Optimized for Qualcomm Devices
ACT (Action Chunking with Transformers) is a robotic policy model that is trained to predict the next chunk of actions that the robotic hand is expected to perform.
This is based on the implementation of ACT found here. This repository contains pre-exported model files optimized for Qualcomm® devices. You can use the Qualcomm® AI Hub Models library to export with custom configurations. More details on model performance across various devices, can be found here.
Qualcomm AI Hub Models uses Qualcomm AI Hub Workbench to compile, profile, and evaluate this model. Sign up to run these models on a hosted Qualcomm® device.
Getting Started
There are two ways to deploy this model on your device:
Option 1: Download Pre-Exported Models
Below are pre-exported model assets ready for deployment.
| Runtime | Precision | Chipset | SDK Versions | Download |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ONNX | float | Universal | QAIRT 2.42, ONNX Runtime 1.24.3 | Download |
| QNN_DLC | float | Universal | QAIRT 2.45 | Download |
| TFLITE | float | Universal | QAIRT 2.45 | Download |
For more device-specific assets and performance metrics, visit ACT on Qualcomm® AI Hub.
Option 2: Export with Custom Configurations
Use the Qualcomm® AI Hub Models Python library to compile and export the model with your own:
- Custom weights (e.g., fine-tuned checkpoints)
- Custom input shapes
- Target device and runtime configurations
This option is ideal if you need to customize the model beyond the default configuration provided here.
See our repository for ACT on GitHub for usage instructions.
