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.

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.

Recent sign language generation (SLG) systems increasingly output dense 3D body representations, which better preserve full-body kinematics and geometry for downstream embodiment on humanoid robots. However, these generated motions frequently exhibit self-intersections such as hand-hand and hand-torso penetration.
Occupancy prediction at voxel-level granularity is essential for safe robotic navigation and interaction in complex environments. Existing occupancy datasets, however, are predominantly designed for autonomous driving with vehicle-centric biases -- forward-facing cameras, far-field geometry, and static road priors -- limiting their applicability to embodied humanoid perception.
