Excited to share Gemini Robotics On-Device, a VLA that runs locally on a single GPU. ⚡️ It combines dexterity, robustness, and inference speed, and can be finetuned easily to solve new tasks and on new embodiments. If you're at RSS, there is going to be a live session today!

Learning from Human Demonstrations: Show the Robot How to Act! The pipeline is very similar to older experiments using Gemini & pi0 with @LeRobotHF. Pi-zero runs locally, while Gemini Flash generates the affordances and the high-level task. (More details are in the thread.) The…
Today, we are introducing SmolVLA: a 450M open-source vision-language action model. Best-in-class performance and inference speed! And the best part? We trained it using all the open-source @LeRobotHF datasets in the @huggingface hub! But how? 🫳🏀
Fun project at PI: knowledge insulation for VLAs. We figured out how to train VLAs with cont. actions much more effectively by insulating the VLM and training it with discrete actions, while action expert learns on top. 5-7x faster, and importantly way better language following…

Meet the game-changer: LeKiwi 🥝 Crafted by @sigrobotics and @huggingface At 1/10 the cost of the best alternative out there, it's the most accessible mobile base for $300. Easier DIY to automate chords at home! 1/ 🧵 Link and details in thread 👇

How can a bimanual robot grasp objects that are initially ungraspable due to environmental constraints? COMBO-Grasp tackles this challenge by leveraging a constraint policy to stabilise the object while a grasp policy executes non-prehensile manipulation and grasping.
🤖 SAM2Act is a multi-task robotics transformer which brings multi-resolution and memory-based modules from visual foundation models (SAM2) to robotics. We find that it is not only *precise* but also enables us to solve *spatial memory-based tasks* previously unsolvable ⬇️

Contact-rich, dexterous manipulation benefits from tactile sensing in two ways: 🥇 By providing force-informed actions in human demonstrations, and 🥈as input to learned manipulation policies. In DexForce 🦾, @clairelchen shows that especially Point 🥇 is crucial.

Well-written summary by @mackdegeurin @PopSci search.app/X8FZ1hfRPvVUwC…
SAM & SAM-2 are great but depend on costly annotations. Can we 'segment anything' without supervision?🤔 Yes! Check out UnSAM @NeurIPS24—an unsupervised segmenter that achieves SAM-level results! 🎉 Even better—UnSAM+ beats SAM with +6.7% AR & +3.9% AP, using just 1% labels!💪
Can a single neural network policy generalize over poses, objects, obstacles, backgrounds, scene arrangements, in-hand objects, and start/goal states? Introducing Neural MP: A generalist policy for solving motion planning tasks in the real world 🤖 1/N
OpenVLA update: We have integrated OpenVLA into the LIBERO simulation benchmark! TLDR: Fine-tuned OpenVLA (76.5%) outperforms fine-tuned Octo (75.1%) and Diffusion Policy trained from scratch (72.4%), on average across 4 task suites. 🧵👇 (Figure from libero-project.github.io/main.html)
Dense tracking of deformable objects can unlock applications in robotics, gen-AI and AR. We present DeformGS (previously MD-Splatting) and release the code and data. Join us at #WAFR where we will present new real-world results! 👇deformgs.github.io 1/9🧵
What structural task representation enables multi-stage, in-the-wild, bimanual, reactive manipulation? Introducing ReKep: LVM to label keypoints & VLM to write keypoint-based constraints, solve w/ optimization for diverse tasks, w/o task-specific training or env models. 🧵👇
RL promises to break through the ‘glass ceiling’ of imitation learning performance, but it’s tricky to scale up. In our latest work @GoogleDeepMind’s Control Team we develop PAC - a scalable, continuous control agent which smoothly interpolates between BC and RL. 1/8 🧵👇
Introducing 𝐇𝐀𝐂𝐌𝐚𝐧++, accepted to RSS 2024! We’ve developed a 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐭-𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜 action space for RL for manipulation. Our approach achieves: •Long-horizon contact reasoning •Generalization to diverse unseen objects •Effectiveness across diverse tasks (1/8)

Can vision and language models be extended to include touch? Yes! We will present a new touch-vision-language dataset collected in the wild and Touch-Vision-Language Models (TVLMs) trained on this dataset at #ICML2024. 🙌 1/6 tactile-vlm.github.io
