NeuroVLA separates semantic planning from feedback-driven motor control, using a vision-language model to provide motor intent, a recurrent module to condition it on proprioceptive and force history, and stateful spiking neurons to produce actions. In evaluated tasks, it reduced mean absolute commanded jerk by 75.6% and achieved 54.8% recovery versus 0.0% for four VLA baselines in a tested obstruction scenario.
