SoftVTBench: A Safety-Aware Visuo-Tactile Benchmark for Physically Constrained Robotic Manipulation of Deformable Objects (Early Version)
Bowen Jing, Mingxin Wang, Ruiyang Hao +15
Deformable object manipulation poses challenges beyond task completion: successful execution must also maintain safe physical interaction, holding the object stably without slip or…
GaussianDream: A Feed-Forward 3D Gaussian World Model for Robotic Manipulation
Zijian Zhang, Yuqing Jiang, Qian Cheng +6
Vision-language-action (VLA) policies have advanced language-conditioned robotic manipulation by transferring semantic priors from pretrained vision-language models to action gener…
WorldString: Actionable World Representation
Kunqi Xu, Jitao Li, Jianglong Ye +4
Inspired by the emergent behaviors in large language models that generalized human intelligence, the research community is pursuing similar emergent capabilities within world model…
ManiSoft: Towards Vision-Language Manipulation for Soft Continuum Robotics
Ziyu Wei, Luting Wang, Chen Gao +2
Most existing vision-language manipulation research targets rigid robotic arms, whose fixed morphology limits adaptability in cluttered or confined spaces. Soft robotic arms offer…
OmniVTA: Visuo-Tactile World Modeling for Contact-Rich Robotic Manipulation
Yuhang Zheng, Songen Gu, Weize Li +11
Contact-rich manipulation tasks, such as wiping and assembly, require accurate perception of contact forces, friction changes, and state transitions that cannot be reliably inferre…
Genie Envisioner: A Unified World Foundation Platform for Robotic Manipulation
Yue Liao, Pengfei Zhou, Siyuan Huang +11
We introduce Genie Envisioner (GE), a unified world foundation platform for robotic manipulation that integrates policy learning, evaluation, and simulation within a single video-g…
