Welcome: The 2nd edition of the 3D-LLM/VLA Workshop will be held at CVPR 2026!

Bridging Language, Vision and Action in 3D Environments

2nd Workshop on 3D-LLM/VLA | CVPR 2026 | Denver, CO, USA

Workshop Overview

This workshop addresses a critical gap in current AI research by focusing on the integration of language and 3D perception, which is essential for developing embodied agents and robots, especially considering the recent rise of multimodal LLMs and vision-language-action (VLA) models.

Building on the momentum and insights from our first workshop at CVPR 2025, this 2nd edition will continue to provide a unique platform for discussing the integration of language and 3D perception. The workshop will deepen the collaboration established in the first edition and further advance the state-of-the-art in 3D-LLM/VLA research.

Topics Include:

  • Integration of language and 3D perception
  • Large language models (LLMs) in 3D environments
  • 3D vision-language-action (VLA) models
  • Embodied agents that integrate language, vision, and action
  • 3D scene understanding and generative world models
  • Robot control and navigation using natural language
  • Multimodal learning for embodied AI

  • Robot control and navigation using natural language
  • Multimodal learning for embodied AI
  • Datasets and benchmarks for 3D-LLMs and 3D-VLAs
  • Applications of 3D-LLMs and 3D-VLAs in real-world scenarios
  • Ethical considerations in developing embodied AI systems
