arXiv:2603. 13869v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Dexterous manipulation enables complex tasks but suffers from self-occlusion, severe depth noise, and depth information loss when manipulating transparent objects.
arXiv:2606. 10614v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robotic foundation models pre-trained on human demonstration videos have shown promise, but a significant embodiment gap remains when the resulting policies are deployed on real robots.
arXiv:2606. 08057v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Egocentric RGB-D videos offer a natural source of human dexterous manipulation demonstrations, but existing data is difficult to use for robot learning because object pose, geometry, and contact information are often missing or require pre-scanned object assets.
arXiv:2608. 15917v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large-scale pre-training has made robot policy fine-tuning increasingly data-efficient, but this progress has largely been driven by datasets and embodiments built around simple parallel-jaw grippers.

arXiv:2602. 05513v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Bimanual dexterous manipulation relies on integrating multimodal inputs to perform complex real-world tasks.
ControlTac is a two‑stage framework that generates realistic tactile images conditioned on a single reference image, contact force, and contact pose. By incorporating these physical priors, it produces realistic samples across different sensors and captures task‑relevant variations. Experiments in object insertion, imitation learning, and object weighting show that datasets augmented with ControlTac consistently improve performance in dynamic real‑world settings.
DeCAL is a vision‑language‑action model designed for dexterous manipulation that incorporates tactile sensing through adaptive visuo‑tactile fusion and latent co‑imagination. It uses a Mixture‑of‑Transformers architecture with specialized experts for understanding, imagination, and action, enabling efficient information flow and dynamic regulation of tactile inputs. Experiments show DeCAL achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance, with a 71% average success rate and 83.4% progress success rate, and generalizes well to unseen scenarios.
TacSushi is a tactile‑grounded, Cosmos3‑based world‑action policy for dexterous sushi manipulation. It encodes RGB, language, and hand state, fusing fingertip tactile data via feature‑wise gated fusion, and learns from future‑consequence predictions while excluding failed actions from imitation. Trained on 340 successful and 50 failed trials, TacSushi achieves 68.3% in‑distribution and 37.5% out‑of‑distribution success, outperforming baselines that lack future‑consequence supervision or use direct tactile concatenation.
