Fly-by-Code: Embodied Coding Agents for Aerial Manipulation with Active Visual and Physical Feedback

Embodied coding agents construct robot policies from natural-language instructions by generating executable programs and refining them from execution feedback.

Key points

  • Aerial manipulation violates this assumption in two ways.
  • To acquire this missing evidence, we introduce Active Feedback (AF), an active "View and Probe" framework.
  • Using shared robot APIs, task programs refined with AF in simulation run on a physical aerial manipulator without task-program source-code modification and complete multi-stage manipulation tasks in the real world.
  • These results show that executable diagnosis fills gaps in execution feedback for embodied coding agents, improving both completion assessment and program refinement in aerial manipulation.
