Achieving bimanual dexterity with RL + Sim2Real! TLDR - We train two robot hands to twist bottle lids using deep RL followed by sim-to-real. A single policy trained with simple simulated bottles can generalize to drastically different real-world objects.

When @zhaohengyin first told me about this idea, I wasn't impressed. "How far can you get with teleoperation for hands?" I asked. Turns out, quite far :) really excited to see the unprecedented dexterity unleased by human motion prompt + sim-to-real, and look forward to more!!!

We introduce Dexterity Gen (DexGen), a foundation controller that enables unprecedented dexterous manipulation capabilities. For the first time, it allows human teleoperation of tasks such as using a pen, screwdriver, and syringe. Developed by @berkeley_AI and @MetaAI. A Thread.

Introducing HOVER, a versatile humanoid whole-body controller that unifies diverse control modes into a generalist policy while preserving advantages of specialists. Check our website for more details and ~beautiful~ demos, as well as previous works by @TairanHe99 and team!!!

🤖 Humanoids are expected to be the ultimate embodiment for general-purpose robots, but reaching that potential means adapting to diverse tasks—navigation, tabletop manipulation, loco-manipulation—each needing unique control modes. 🤔 Can one controller handle it all? ✨ Introducing HOVER: 🧩 Unified Command Space: Supports kinematic position, joint angle, and root tracking in a unified versatile policy. 💪 Generalist Controller: HOVER outperforms previous specialized policies trained on specific modes (ExBody, H2O, OmniH2O, HumanPlus). 🌐 Website:

@GCerono @YuZhang Thanks! There are force sensors on each of the fingertips, we use the readings for training behaviors but not for teleoperation:)

@YuZhang @PSYONICinc @hellorokoko @kenny__shaw And shout-out to Franklin @YuZhang, an amazing undergraduate student who has contributed a lot to setting up these teleoperation systems despite having no prior experience at all! Franklin is applying to PhD programs this year, and I would not hesitate to recommend :)
