Excited to share what I've been working over the last few months! We taught Spot to lift, roll, and stack tires completely autonomously. It uses its arms, body, and legs to manipulate heavy objects at speed.

We also show RL-based tire uprighting, where the tire literally flies into the air. This illustrates just how dynamic whole-body manipulation can be.

Our new paper shows how task representations learned via temporal alignment enable compositional generalization for conditional policies. This allows robots to solve compound tasks by implicitly decomposing them into subtasks.
Vivek Myers@vivek_myers

Current robot learning methods are good at imitating tasks seen during training, but struggle to compose behaviors in new ways. When training imitation policies, we found something surprising—using temporally-aligned task representations enabled compositional generalization. 1/

Learning bimanual, contact-rich robot manipulation policies that generalize over diverse objects has long been a challenge. Excited to share our work: Planning-Guided Diffusion Policy Learning for Generalizable Contact-Rich Bimanual Manipulation! glide-manip.github.io 🧵1/n

ICYMI: For #CoRL2024 we released a dataset of 3.5M (!) dexterous grasps, with multi-trial labels and perceptual data for 4.3k objects. Our takeaways: scale matters, and refining grasps > better sampling. Hoping our data can enable more vision-based grasps in hardware!
Albert Li@albert_h_li

There have been many recent big grasping datasets, but few demos of real-world grasping using generative models. How do we achieve this? Introducing: Get a Grip (#corl2024)! We show that instead of generative models, discriminative models can attain sim2real transfer! 👀🧵👇

This is a joint work with an amazing team! Jan Brüdigam, Ali Abbas, @initmaks, @KuanFang, Brandon Hung, Maya Guru, Stefan Sosnowski, Jiuguang Wang and Sandra Hirche Jan did an awesome job leading the project during his internship at @the_ai_inst. So proud of what we accomplished!

We used reinforcement learning bootstrapped with expert planner demonstrations to learn robust policies. We deployed them on several hardware scenarios using Boston Dynamics' Spot

I'm excited to share Jacta: A Versatile Planner for Learning Dexterous and Whole-body Manipulation. We use sampling-based planning to bootstrap policy learning methods for manipulation tasks. My friend, Jan Brüdigam is presenting the work today at CoRL! jacta-manipulation.github.io
