HumanoidExo: Scalable Whole-Body Humanoid Manipulation via Wearable Exoskeleton
Rui Zhong, Yizhe Sun, Junjie Wen +7
A significant bottleneck in humanoid policy learning is the acquisition of large-scale, diverse datasets, as collecting reliable real-world data remains both difficult and cost-pro…
ActiveUMI: Robotic Manipulation with Active Perception from Robot-Free Human Demonstrations
Qiyuan Zeng, Chengmeng Li, Jude St. John +5
We present ActiveUMI, a framework for a data collection system that transfers in-the-wild human demonstrations to robots capable of complex bimanual manipulation. ActiveUMI couples…
dVLA: Diffusion Vision-Language-Action Model with Multimodal Chain-of-Thought
Junjie Wen, Minjie Zhu, Jiaming Liu +6
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models are emerging as a next-generation paradigm for robotics. We introduce dVLA, a diffusion-based VLA that leverages a multimodal chain-of-thought t…
ChatVLA-2: Vision-Language-Action Model with Open-World Embodied Reasoning from Pretrained Knowledge
Zhongyi Zhou, Yichen Zhu, Junjie Wen +2
Vision-language-action (VLA) models have emerged as the next generation of models in robotics. However, despite leveraging powerful pre-trained Vision-Language Models (VLMs), exist…
WorldEval: World Model as Real-World Robot Policies Evaluator
Yaxuan Li, Yichen Zhu, Junjie Wen +2
The field of robotics has made significant strides toward developing generalist robot manipulation policies. However, evaluating these policies in real-world scenarios remains time…
