DexTouch-WM is an action‑conditioned world model that learns from scalable human touch to predict future RGB observations and bilateral tactile dynamics for dexterous robot manipulation. By using compatible piezoresistive arrays on both human and robot hands and retargeting human motion into the robot action space, the model can be supervised with human interaction data while keeping a fixed amount of real‑robot supervision. Experiments show that adding up to 100 hours of human interaction improves robot‑domain visual, geometric, and contact prediction, and the model can serve as a surrogate environment for policy evaluation and synthetic trajectory generation.

AdaRoboVLG is a Vision‑Language‑Grasp framework that separates a generalizable base grasp policy from task‑specific understanding. The base policy generates and evaluates physically feasible grasp candidates using kinematic mapping and force‑closure stability, while foundation‑model modules supply composable spatial, cognitive, and temporal priors that adapt grasp synthesis to different robotic hands and environments without retraining. Experiments show strong cross‑hand generalization, effective handling of diverse grasping challenges, and functional grasping in cluttered, dynamic settings.

TACROSS is a low‑cost, scalable system that enables robots to learn from human touch by aligning tactile streams at the level of contact events rather than raw sensor values. It combines a $10.86 piezoresistive glove with 285 sensing points and a temporal Transformer that maps heterogeneous signals into a shared 256‑dimensional latent space. The approach uses robot demonstrations for action supervision while human demonstrations aid tactile representation learning, achieving a 3.5‑fold efficiency improvement and a 95.7% reduction in demonstration equipment cost across four manipulation tasks.
