arXiv:2608. 14028v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dexterous manipulation is a fundamental capability for embodied intelligence, but scaling it remains difficult because robot demonstrations are expensive to collect and action spaces vary across embodiments.

RoboTok is an internet‑scale data engine that retrieves human manipulation videos from the web to train dexterous robot policies. It learns a latent motion space from 3D hand trajectories in actor‑centered reference frames, allowing manipulation behaviors to be compared across different viewpoints, scenes, and occlusions while remaining compact for efficient search. Experiments show RoboTok retrieves more relevant demonstrations and improves downstream robot task success compared to existing retrieval methods.

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.
