Hydraulic soft fingers offer compliant and gentle manipulation, but their practical deployment is limited by bulky fluidic hardware, fabrication complexity, and insufficient design validation. This paper presents a compact 3D-printed soft hydraulic finger driven by a miniature cy…

Multi-robot systems provide the parallelism and redundancy necessary for long-horizon tasks, while Large Language Models (LLMs) offer the reasoning capabilities to decompose these objectives into actionable plans. However, effectively grounding this high-level reasoning in physic…

Generalist robot manipulation policies have advanced rapidly, yet existing benchmarks remain limited in systematically evaluating their capabilities. Many rely on simple, short-horizon, or skill-narrow tasks with limited capability coverage, and are often conducted only in simula…

Deformable object manipulation poses challenges beyond task completion: successful execution must also maintain safe physical interaction, holding the object stably without slip or drop while avoiding excessive deformation. However, existing manipulation benchmarks are predominan…

Vision-based tactile sensing converts contact-induced surface deformation into images, enabling robots to infer contact forces and fine surface textures that are not accessible through conventional vision alone. However, tactile images are sensor- and physics-specific, so effecti…
