arXiv:2606. 17054v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Humans can grasp objects effortlessly, whereas multi-fingered robots are far from this level of generality.
arXiv:2604. 04690v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Bin picking in real industrial environments remains challenging due to severe clutter, occlusions, and the high cost of traditional 3D sensing setups.
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.
Robotic manipulation with dexterous hands is a cornerstone of Embodied AI, yet its progress is stifled by the high cost of collecting embodiment-aware teleoperation data. While abundant egocentric videos of human hands offer a scalable alternative, the profound discrepancies in appearance, articulation, and camera viewpoints between human and robotic data raise significant challenges for co-training.
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:2607. 14341v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robust robotic grasping remains a fundamental challenge for complex real-world applications.
arXiv:2505. 05517v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Functional grasping is essential for enabling dexterous multi-finger robot hands to manipulate objects effectively.
arXiv:2604. 01001v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce EgoSim, a closed-loop egocentric world simulator that generates spatially consistent interaction videos and persistently updates the underlying 3D scene state for continuous simulation.
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.
Predicting object dynamics (i. e.
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.
World models offer a promising route toward robot planning by enabling agents to imagine and verify the consequences of actions before execution. However, current video-based world models often struggle to capture the physical constraints that govern manipulation, particularly contact.
arXiv:2606. 17846v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Foundation models in language and multimodality achieve strong generalization by aligning heterogeneous data under a unified formulation and training at scale.
