arXiv:2607. 26985v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep reinforcement policy learning directly in physical robots (on-robot learning) remains bottlenecked by slow wall-clock training times.

arXiv:2506. 08630v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: A universal controller for any robot morphology would greatly improve computational and data efficiency.

arXiv:2510. 11103v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Many robotic control tasks require policies to act on orientations, yet the geometry of SO(3) makes this nontrivial.

arXiv:2606. 12334v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: High-precision robotic manipulation requires fine-grained spatial reasoning that is often difficult to achieve with RGB-only policies due to depth ambiguity and perspective scale issues.

We’ve trained a pair of neural networks to solve the Rubik’s Cube with a human-like robot hand. The neural networks are trained entirely in simulation, using the same reinforcement learning code as OpenAI Five paired with a new technique called Automatic Domain Randomization (ADR).
arXiv:2511. 14427v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Effective contact-rich manipulation requires robots to synergistically leverage vision, force, and proprioception.
