How do we unlock the full dexterity of robot hands with data, even beyond what teleoperation can achieve? DEXOP captures natural human manipulation with full-hand tactile & proprio sensing, plus direct force feedback to users, without needing a robot👉dex-op.github.io
🏓🤖 Our humanoid robot can now rally over 100 consecutive shots against a human in real table tennis — fully autonomous, sub-second reaction, human-like strikes.
Good Old-Fashioned Engineering Can Close the 100,000-Year “Data Gap” in Robotics. Science Robotics Editorial: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
How do we learn motor skills directly in the real world? Think about learning to ride a bike—parents might be there to give you hands-on guidance.🚲 Can we apply this same idea to robots? Introducing Robot-Trains-Robot (RTR): a new framework for real-world humanoid learning.

@svlevine Good article. I have three comments: 1. With any hard optimization problem, if you can get into the right ballpark, you save a lot of time searching around. I think that's where human demonstration really helps. 2. When a human watches Roger Federer, they get the gist of what…
We’ve all seen humanoid robots doing backflips and dance routines for years. But if you ask them to climb a few stairs in the real world, they stumble! We took our robot on a walk around town to environments that it hadn’t seen before. Here’s how it works🧵⬇️
We now test our humanoid robots by having its onboard neural network play games that challenge its intelligence and fine motor skills

How can we leverage diverse human videos to improve robot manipulation? Excited to introduce EgoVLA — a Vision-Language-Action model trained on egocentric human videos by explicitly modeling wrist & hand motion. We build a shared action space between humans and robots, enabling…
What are robot world models Read more: open.substack.com/pub/itcanthink…
How should an RL agent leverage expert data to improve sample efficiency? Imitation losses can overly constrain an RL policy. In RL via Implicit Imitation Guidance, we show how to use expert data to guide more efficient *exploration*, avoiding pitfalls of imitation-augmented RL
If you have a policy that uses diffusion/flow (e.g. diffusion VLA), you can run RL where the actor chooses the noise, which is then denoised by the policy to produce an action. This method, which we call diffusion steering (DSRL), leads to a remarkably efficient RL method! 🧵👇
What would a World Model look like if we start from a real embodied agent acting in the real world? It has to have: 1) A real, physically grounded and complex action space—not just abstract control signals. 2) Diverse, real-life scenarios and activities. Or in short: It has to…
🤖 Can a humanoid robot hold extreme single-leg poses like Bruce Lee's Kick or the Swallow Balance? 🤸 💥 YES. Meet HuB: Learning Extreme Humanoid Balance 🔗 Project website: hub-robot.github.io
Command humanoids *directly* with natural language? Introducing LangWBC, a generative, end-to-end policy that turns natural language into real-world whole-body humanoid control! 💬→🦿Smooth, robust, surprisingly intuitive! See more 👉 LangWBC.github.io #RSS2025
Can we prompt robots, just like we prompt language models? With hierarchy of VLA models + LLM-generated data, robots can: - reason through long-horizon tasks - respond to variety of prompts - handle situated corrections Blog post & paper: pi.website/research/hirob…
Time to democratize humanoid robots! Introducing ToddlerBot, a low-cost ($6K), open-source humanoid for robotics and AI research. Watch two ToddlerBots seamlessly chain their loco-manipulation skills to collaborate in tidying up after a toy session. toddlerbot.github.io
