arXiv:2607. 13479v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Estimating the full shape of a deformable object is especially challenging when vision is unavailable: in the dark, inside an opaque bag, behind the manipulating hand, or under heavy self-occlusion.
arXiv:2606. 09243v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Estimating full-hand grasp pressure from egocentric video is critical for immersive VR and robotic manipulation, yet dense tactile sensing often relies on intrusive hardware.
arXiv:2606. 17054v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Humans can grasp objects effortlessly, whereas multi-fingered robots are far from this level of generality.
Synthesizing realistic full-body human interactions with articulated objects is a fundamental challenge for embodied AI and graphics, with applications in robotics training and virtual agents. Existing models remain limited: some focus on simple activities with static objects, while others restrict attention to hand-only manipulation.
Estimating physical pressure from vision is essential for understanding contact-rich hand-object interaction. However, prior vision-based pressure estimation methods are largely limited to planar surfaces and single image input, making them difficult to apply to dynamic hand-object interaction with diverse objects.
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:2606. 24450v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Perceiving physical contact is fundamental to dexterous manipulation.
arXiv:2606. 06872v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Estimating hand-surface contact pressure from an egocentric view is crucial for AR/VR devices, robotic imitation, and ergonomic analysis.
arXiv:2606. 24712v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Humans effortlessly locate and identify objects by touch alone, even without vision.
Predicting object dynamics (i. e.
Driven by the availability of large-scale datasets, Human Pose Estimation (HPE) plays a critical role in numerous downstream tasks. However, mainstream benchmarks exhibit severe representation bias, predominantly featuring able-bodied individuals.
arXiv:2606. 11767v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Blind grasping with a dexterous hand is a crucial manipulation capability.
arXiv:2602. 08058v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In the presence of occlusions and measurement noise, geometrically accurate scene reconstructions -- which fit the sensor data -- can still be physically incorrect.
