SceneBot: Contact-Prompted General Humanoid Whole Body Tracking with Scene-Interaction

arXiv:2606. 27581v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Current humanoid reinforcement-learning policies excel at free-space motions but struggle with contact-rich tasks, as pure kinematic tracking cannot resolve the physical ambiguities of interacting with objects and uneven terrain.
