Eyes see. Hands feel. Many visuotactile methods rely only on concatenation, leaving room to better exploit alignment and complementarity for manipulation. Excited to share our #ICRA2026 paper: "ViTaS: Visual Tactile Soft Fusion Contrastive Learning for Visuomotor Learning".

Can robots learn a bimanual dexterous skill from just one video? DexImit makes it possible 🏄‍♂️ — automatically converting human videos into physically plausible training data for bimanual manipulation, either from text2video models or real-world recordings.

Just collecting manipulation data isn’t enough for robots - they need to be able to move around in the world, which has a whole different set of challenges from pure manipulation. And bringing navigation and manipulation together in a single framework is even more challenging. Enter HERMES, from @fancy_yzc and @still_wtm. This is a four-stage process in which human videos are used to set up an RL sim-to-real training pipeline in order to overcome differences between robot and human kinematics, and used together with a navigation foundation model to move around in a variety of environments. To learn more, join us as @fancy_yzc and @still_wtm tell us about how they built their system to perform mobile dexterous manipulation from human videos in a variety of environments.

Introducing RL-100: Performant Robotic Manipulation with Real-World Reinforcement Learning. lei-kun.github.io/RL-100/ 7 real robot tasks, 900/900 successes. Up to 250 consecutive trials in one task, running 2 hours nonstop without failure. High success rate against physical disturbances, zero-shot, and few-shot adaptation Our first step toward a deployable robot learning system.

🚀 Thrilled to introduce ERA: Entropy Regularizing Activation! A new paradigm to control model entropy via output activations. Delivering major performance boosts in: 🤖 LLM Reasoning 🤸 Continuous Control 🖼️ Image Classification Thread below 🧵

Very impressive！Focused sim2real mobile dexterous manipulation，human data is leveraged for the guidance in reinforcement learning.

In weekly meeting, our advisor Huazhe kept asking: "What's the real point of simulation for manipulation?" HERMES offers a potential answer. Our framework converts diverse human motion data into real robot behaviors via sim training, all without task-specific reward designing.

Controlling a CM6 robot with a LEAP motion controller. J2 of the robot is a bit underpowered but we mainly tested our algorithm here that we will implement on our other robots. Data is shared at 125Hz between robot and Leap over local network.

Drop the camera, and bang -- the robots do the job without camera calibration or additional data collection. We want robots to manipulate anywhere! Our new work, **Maniwhere**, enables robots to manipulate objects from any camera view with any background. Isn't this the generalization every roboticist is looking for? How do we achieve this with sim2real? You can check this thread x.com/fancy_yzc/stat… from @fancy_yzc ! And the website is here: gemcollector.github.io/maniwhere/

🥳Glad to share our new work **Maniwhere** ! Maniwhere enables your robot to generalize across diverse visual conditions and camera viewpoints in a zero-shot manner.🤖 No more worrying about your lab mates messing with the camera setup you've carefully designed ! 🤣
