ForceFlow is a force-aware reactive framework that uses flow matching to improve contact-rich manipulation. It fuses force signals asymmetrically, treats force as a global regulator, and employs a joint prediction paradigm to couple force and motion. The approach splits tasks into a vision-dominant localization stage and a touch-dominant execution stage, using a Vision-to-Force handover to separate spatial generalization from contact regulation.

arXiv:2607. 09218v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Whole-arm manipulation involves direct contact with the environment while the robot completes a task by distributing contact across multiple links as contacts form, slide, and break.
HybridFlow is a generative policy for robotic manipulation that uses a three‑stage inference procedure requiring only two network function evaluations (2‑NFE). The policy first generates a coarse action trajectory with a Global Jump based on MeanFlow, then refines the state using a parameter‑free ReNoise interpolation, and finally performs a Local Refine to query the instantaneous‑velocity limit. Experiments on RoboMimic and five real‑robot settings show that HybridFlow achieves high success rates and improves task performance over a 16‑step Diffusion Policy while reducing action‑generation latency by roughly eightfold.
