Whole-body Control (WBC) has emerged as an important framework in locomotion control for legged robots. However, most of WBC frameworks fail to generalize beyond rigid terrains. Legged locomotion over soft terrain is difficult due to the presence of...
Our extensive testing process involves weeks or months of research, combining expert insights and consumer feedback. From creating obstacle courses for robot vacuums to fireproof safe tests, we …
Box/cabinet scenarios with stacked objects pose significant challenges for robotic motion due to visual occlusions and constrained free space. Traditional collision-free trajectory planning methods often fail when no collision-free paths exist, and m...
This paper introduces a learning-based framework for robot adaptive manipulating the object with a revolute joint in unstructured environments. We concentrate our discussion on various cabinet door opening tasks. To improve the performance of Deep Re...
We address the important problem of generalizing robotic rearrangement to clutter without any explicit object models. We first generate over 650K cluttered scenes - orders of magnitude more than prior work - in diverse everyday environments, such as...
In this paper, we explore how we can build upon the data and models of Internet images and use them to adapt to robot vision without requiring any extra labels. We present a framework called Self-supervised Embodied Active Learning (SEAL). It utilize...
Following the impressive capabilities of in-context learning with large transformers, In-Context Imitation Learning (ICIL) is a promising opportunity for robotics. We introduce Instant Policy, which learns new tasks instantly (without further trainin...
A classic task in robotics is tracking a target in the external environment. There are several well-documented approaches to this problem. This paper presents a novel approach to this problem using infrared time of flight sensors. The use of infrared...
