A tactile system recovers 6-DoF object pose from one contact pair by coarse-to-fine localization of point clouds on a known model followed by normal-aware SVD.
Whole-hand tactile coverage and per-taxel force/torque dominate sensor type and resolution for learning three dexterous tasks in a new high-throughput tactile simulator.
Tactile-WAM with TAAM improves mean success rate by 38.9% overall and 86% on contact-rich tasks on ManiFeel by using VideoClean mask and touch-aware bias to prevent tactile pollution in world action models.
Tac-DINO constructs a large tactile dataset and Vis-Tac Holographic Matching Benchmark, then proposes Vision-Tactile Patch Alignment (VTPA) methods that outperform non-aligned baselines on local-to-global feature matching.
MiTaS fuses multi-resolution tactile data from GelSight and Evetac sensors with vision using modality-specific stems and transformer fusion to condition flow-matching policies, reporting 80% average success on five contact-rich tasks versus 31-54% baselines.
Tabero supplies a data pipeline that turns existing robot trajectories into vision-tactile-language tasks and a VTLA model that keeps task success high while cutting average grip force by over 70 percent under gentle instructions.
VBT-MPC performs robotic contour following by running MPC directly in vision-based tactile contour feature space and is tested on varied geometries in simulation and real experiments.
MagicSim is a unified embodied interaction infrastructure built on a deterministic batched runtime and shared MDP that supports diverse world construction, execution, task evaluation, automatic rollout generation, and interactive agent interfaces.
FlexiTac is a scalable piezoresistive tactile sensing system with flexible FPC-Velostat-FPC pads and a 100 Hz multi-channel readout board that mounts on rigid or soft grippers and supports visuo-tactile learning.
Soft growing robots map unknown 2D environments by characterizing collision deformations, building a geometry-based simulator, and using Monte Carlo sampling to select optimal deployments that approach ideal actions.
