Manipulating a Rubik's Cube with a single dexterous hand is a challenging test of sustained, contact-rich control: the hand must execute successive layer turns while keeping the cube secure. Each turn requires some fingers to support the cube while others push a moving layer, release contact, and reset for the next mov …
Robotic assembly in high-mixture settings requires adaptable systems that can handle diverse parts, yet current approaches typically rely on policies specialized to each insertion task. Although this can reach high success rates, it makes the process of deploying systems for new problems tedious and time consuming. We …
State-of-the-art visual locomotion controllers are increasingly capable at handling complex visual environments, making evaluating their real-world performance before deployment increasingly difficult. This work intends to narrow this train/evaluation gap by developing a collection of hyper-photo-realistic, closed-loop …
