Pretrained vision-language-action (VLA) policies provide strong language-conditioned manipulation knowledge, but they remain largely vision-driven and can struggle once manipulation enters contact states where the scene is occluded, depth is ambiguous, or small force errors push…
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models exhibit strong generalization for robotic manipulation, yet their high inference latency limits real time deployment. We identify two primary sources of temporal redundancy in existing VLA pipelines: repeated visual encoding of highly similar c…
Teleoperation is a key interface for controlling dexterous robotic hands and collecting demonstrations for imitation learning. Its effectiveness largely depends on kinematic retargeting, which maps operator hand motions to feasible and intuitive robot hand motions. Existing metho…
