Co-Evolving Robot Orchestrators and Policies through Deployment
Xilun Zhang, Maggie Wang, Erik Bauer +4
Vision-language-action (VLA) policies trained on large datasets are capable within their training domains, yet they still fail to generalize to the variety of situations a robot me…
Smooth Operator: A Real-Time Sampling-Based Algorithm for Kinematic Hand Retargeting
Robert Jomar Malate, Erik Bauer, Norica Bacuieti +4
Advances in learning-based robotic manipulation, such as Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models and Video Action Models (VAMs), heavily rely on high-quality teleoperation data. Their…
mimic-one: a Scalable Model Recipe for General Purpose Robot Dexterity
Elvis Nava, Victoriano Montesinos, Erik Bauer +8
We present a diffusion-based model recipe for real-world control of a highly dexterous humanoid robotic hand, designed for sample-efficient learning and smooth fine-motor action in…
Latent Action Diffusion for Cross-Embodiment Manipulation
Erik Bauer, Elvis Nava, Robert K. Katzschmann
End-to-end learning is emerging as a powerful paradigm for robotic manipulation, but its effectiveness is limited by data scarcity and the heterogeneity of action spaces across rob…
An Open-Source Soft Robotic Platform for Autonomous Aerial Manipulation in the Wild
Erik Bauer, Marc Blöchlinger, Pascal Strauch +3
Aerial manipulation combines the versatility and speed of flying platforms with the functional capabilities of mobile manipulation, which presents significant challenges due to the…
Autonomous Marker-less Rapid Aerial Grasping
Erik Bauer, Barnabas Gavin Cangan, Robert K. Katzschmann
In a future with autonomous robots, visual and spatial perception is of utmost importance for robotic systems. Particularly for aerial robotics, there are many applications where u…
RAPTOR: Rapid Aerial Pickup and Transport of Objects by Robots
Aurel Appius, Erik Bauer, Marc Blöchlinger +7
Rapid aerial grasping through robots can lead to many applications that utilize fast and dynamic picking and placing of objects. Rigid grippers traditionally used in aerial manipul…
