Deep neural networks, including large language models, have achieved remarkable performance across various tasks. However, they are prone to overconfidence during training or fine-tuning. In this work, we observe a consistent phenomenon across different models that the early model is better calibrated, while later trai …
Force-aware manipulation typically relies on specialized force or tactile sensors. We show that force-aware manipulation can instead be achieved through visual force prediction from the deformation of a compliant Fin Ray gripper. Our approach trains two models. First, we train a visual force estimator on calibration da …
Vision-based tactile sensors (VBTS) provide rich contact information for robotic manipulation, but existing designs can be hard to simplify and adapt to the size and constraints of humanoid fingertips. We introduce \textbf{GlowTact}, a pressure-responsive vision-based tactile sensing mechanism that directly visualizes …
