General-purpose agents increasingly write code, use tools, and complete complex digital tasks, raising the question of how far these capabilities carry into the physical world. To investigate this, we introduce RobotWorld, a challenging simulation testbed for robot use: turning instructions and observations into physic …
We audit frequency and decoder-depth claims for AdvWave-P, an additive audio jailbreak, on Qwen2-Audio. The protocol masks frequency components of the perturbation in the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) domain and measures attack success and audio-span representations. On 520 AdvBench prompts, the primary judge lab …
Image-to-text jailbreaks place harmful intent in text, image content, or the relationship between them. We examine image-side factors across four published attack families on a 313-prompt StrongREJECT slice, using five multimodal models and an additional appendix evaluation of InternVL3.5-8B. The harmful instruction is …
Partnered human-humanoid interaction couples locomotion with continuous physical contact. A humanoid needs to coordinate with a person's motion while responding to interaction forces and maintaining stable and natural movement. We present CoDance, a framework for learning reactive and compliant human-humanoid interacti …
Humanoids are increasingly capable of tracking complex whole-body motions, but physical interaction introduces a different challenge. When a robot makes contact with a person or the environment, it needs to respond to external forces while preserving the motion needed for the task. This response can vary across directi …
Sim-to-real transfer has made substantial progress, but can still produce controllers that remain stable and functional on hardware while suffering from degraded tracking accuracy due to residual dynamics mismatch. Correcting these errors typically requires identifying the underlying system dynamics, adapting the contr …
Heterogeneous robot teams distribute complementary capabilities across specialized agents, but their physical roles and capacities typically remain fixed throughout a mission. We present HARP, a Heterogeneous Aerial Robotic modules Platform in which independently deployable aerial robots physically reconfigure to compo …
Field robots must traverse varied terrain and obstacles while remaining robust to water, debris, vegetation, and physical contact. We present MARBLE, a fully enclosed omnidirectional amphibious rolling robot driven entirely by internal mass redistribution. Three mutually orthogonal linear sliders shift internal masses …
Contact detection during robotic manipulation allows robots to recognize unexpected contact and adapt their motion accordingly. However, in low-cost robot arms without dedicated force or tactile sensors, detecting weak contacts from proprioception is challenging because the resulting changes in joint-level propriocepti …
Robotic manipulation has increasingly pursued human-like dexterous hands with many articulated degrees of freedom, offering rich manipulation capabilities at the cost of mechanical and control complexity. At the other extreme, parallel grippers are simple and robust, but provide little ability to manipulate an object a …
