The paper presents a decentralized, object‑centric control strategy for cooperative multi‑humanoid pickup and transport of objects with diverse sizes, weights, and shapes. Each humanoid is assigned a local attachment region on the shared object and learns to perform gripperless bimanual pinching, enabling pickup, transport, and handover without task‑specific redesign. Experiments in simulation and on real hardware demonstrate that single‑robot trained policies transfer to multi‑robot settings and that additional multi‑robot training further improves coordination.

Perception-based humanoid loco-manipulation requires connecting egocentric observations and task instructions to whole-body motion. Learning this mapping requires synchronized egocentric images, language commands, and robot-compatible kinematic trajectories, yet no existing data source provides this complete tuple at scale.

Sim-and-Human Co-training (SimHum) is a method that combines simulation and human demonstration data to train bimanual manipulation policies. It first extracts kinematic priors from simulation and visual priors from human observations, then fine‑tunes on a small real‑robot dataset. With only 80 real‑robot episodes per task, SimHum achieves 62.5% success on out‑of‑distribution scenes across four tabletop tasks, outperforming real‑only training by 53.7% and improving the best single‑source baseline by 35.0% in a matched‑time study.
