“No matter what culture we belong to, there are moments at the table that can be compared to a sacred ritual”: @p_alvesoliveira on #UWAllen researchers’ work with @tyler_schrenk to center dining’s social aspects in robot-assisted feeding systems 🤖🍽️: news.cs.washington.edu/2023/05/18/set… 1/2
The cover photo seems familiar! Our MuSHR project is featured as one of 20 best robotics projects powered by Jetson Nano. Here’s what MuSHR has recently been up to: youtu.be/p2XAi_MyYwc @uw_robotics @uwcse

Can we narrow the reality gap for vision-based tactile sensors? We present Tactile Diffusion for generating synthetic tactile images. On real Braille reading task with a DIGIT sensor, a classifier trained with our model outperforms other data adaptation approaches. (1/5)
🏆 we are so grateful to receive the Best Paper Award @HRI_Conference for our work on robot-assisted social dining for people with motor impairments. This work would have been impossible without @tyler_schrenk! Co-authored w Amal Nanavati, @EKGRobots, @siddhss5, @mayacakmak 🍗
Robot manipulation fails are the pits. So a team of @UW #UWAllen + @CMU_Robotics researchers developed CherryBot, an efficient, generalizable reinforcement learning system for performing fine manipulation tasks using chopsticks.👇🍒 @UW_robotics @UWengineering #UWinnovates

Let’s do 🍒 Cherry Picking with Reinforcement Learning goodcherrybot.github.io - 🥢 Dynamic fine manipulation with chopsticks - 🤖 Only 30 minutes of real world interactions - ⛔️ Too lazy for parameter tuning = off-the-shelf RL algo + default params + 3 seeds in real world
I am recruiting PhD students to join us in the Washington Embodied Intelligence and Robotic Development Lab (WEIRD) weirdlab.cs.washington.edu at @uwcse. We work on robot learning, especially RL in the real world! Check out tinyurl.com/guptauw for details (1/3)
How does Amazon leverage Robotics and AI in production in Fulfillment? I gave a Distinguished Seminar at Carnegie Mellon University detailing our work. Check out the entire talk video here: cs.cmu.edu/calendar/16260… Here's a summary 🧵. (1/n)
It's wonderful to finally share @ProjectEMAR robot platform. Huge shout out to @mayacakmak for software development and to @p_alvesoliveira for pushing this project forward. #teamwork FLEX-SDK: An Open-Source Software Development Kit for #socialrobots dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/35…

status: roadtrip to Bend to attend @ACMUIST. I will be presenting about our software kit for social robots! fun fact: Bend ranks nmbr 3 on US cities with the most craft breweries per capita 🍻 paper: dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/35… @mayacakmak @elinbjorling @uwcse @hcdeUW @uw_robotics
Excited to share work on generalizable dexterous grasping! The key insight is that creating content in sim can be expensive. By using a generative model to modify shapes, we can generate diverse object content and train policies to grasp unseen objects with a robot hand! 🧵(1/5)
Automatically generate 4000 novel objects and their grasps from only 20 objects? Come and check out our #CoRL22 paper ISAGrasp! Paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2210.13638… Website: sites.google.com/view/implicita…
Patrick Lancaster will be presenting our work on proximity sensing for pose estimation during in-hand manipulation today at 15:10 in Room 17 at #IROS2022! paper: arxiv.org/abs/2204.02371 video: youtu.be/Ct9k0mSmAYs
Ever wondered🤔where does data come from for 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 for 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥-𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐫𝐨𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬? Multi-task data is easy to collect and can bridge the generalization gap. Project page: sites.google.com/view/real-orl/ (1/n)
Super excited to share that I'll be joining the @UMRobotics Department @UMich as an Assistant Professor in Fall 2023! My lab will focus on building interactive autonomy for #robots working with and around people. Spread the word for interested students and collaborators 😎
LLMs encode 1D tokens, vision transformers encode 2D image patches, but what's the right formulation for 6-DoF manipulation transformers? Maybe 3D voxel patches? 🧵Checkout our #CoRL22 paper – PerAct👇 Paper & Colab: peract.github.io
