arXiv:2604. 04690v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Bin picking in real industrial environments remains challenging due to severe clutter, occlusions, and the high cost of traditional 3D sensing setups.

arXiv:2606. 24472v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-action (VLA) models have made rapid progress in generalist robot manipulation by harnessing semantic knowledge from pretrained vision-language backbones, but their visual tokens remain grounded in 2D image coordinates rather than the calibrated geometry of the robot's cameras -- a mismatch especially pronounced in multi-camera setups, where views are coupled by known intrinsics and extrinsics yet processed as independent images.

arXiv:2607. 04714v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learning motion latents for robotic manipulation heavily relies on extracting motion patterns from visual sequences, yet effective action abstractions require understanding three-dimensional geometric transformations.

Monocular relative pose sensing is a central perception problem in non-cooperative rendezvous and on-orbit servicing. In spacecraft images, however, weak surface texture, thin appendages, illumination changes, and partial occlusion often leave only sparse and unstable geometric evidence.
arXiv:2606. 20118v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-action (VLA) policies have shown strong potential for general-purpose manipulation, yet they often fail on novel, out-of-distribution objects whose appearance or geometry deviates from the training distribution.
