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.

ULTRA is a unified framework for autonomous humanoid whole-body locomotion and manipulation that overcomes limitations of prior methods by combining a physics-driven neural retargeting algorithm with a multimodal controller. The retargeting algorithm translates large-scale motion capture data into physically plausible humanoid motions, while the controller learns to handle both dense motion references and sparse task specifications using a range of sensory inputs, from accurate motion-capture states to noisy egocentric vision. In simulation and on a real Unitree G1 humanoid, ULTRA demonstrates improved generalization and robustness, enabling coordinated whole-body behavior from sparse intent without relying on test-time reference motions.

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.

Embodied foundation models are expected to benefit from data scaling like large language models, but face a much tighter data bottleneck. Teleoperated real-robot trajectories remain the dominant pretraining source due to their precise action supervision and embodiment alignment, yet their scalability is limited by high collection cost, acquisition difficulty, and low behavioral and environmental diversity.

The paper introduces HAP, a Hand-Driven Active Perception framework that predicts future six‑degree‑of‑freedom head motion in egocentric settings by conditioning on observed hand motion and inferred target context. HAP constructs a Predictive Target‑Centric Amodal Occlusion Graph to model current and potential occlusions among candidate objects, fuses this with hand and head motion history, and blends the learned trajectory with a constant‑velocity prior. Experiments on a public dataset and a newly released Bottle RGB‑D dataset demonstrate that HAP outperforms baseline methods in head‑motion prediction, highlighting the importance of hand‑driven intention and dynamic occlusion reasoning.
