TAP-VLA: Tactile Annotation Prompting for Vision Language Action Models
Mark Van der Merwe, Mohamad Louai Shehab, Jayjun Lee +4
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models demonstrate impressive reasoning over visual, semantic, and spatial task variations by leveraging large-scale vision and language pre-training.…
TactAlign: Human-to-Robot Policy Transfer via Tactile Alignment
Youngsun Wi, Jessica Yin, Elvis Xiang +5
Human demonstrations collected by wearable devices (e.g., tactile gloves) provide fast and dexterous supervision for policy learning, and are guided by rich, natural tactile feedba…
OSMO: Open-Source Tactile Glove for Human-to-Robot Skill Transfer
Jessica Yin, Haozhi Qi, Youngsun Wi +7
Human video demonstrations provide abundant training data for learning robot policies, but video alone cannot capture the rich contact signals critical for mastering manipulation.…
Neural Inverse Source Problems
Youngsun Wi, Jayjun Lee, Miquel Oller +1
