A Pragmatist Robot: Learning to Plan Tasks by Experiencing the Real World

RA-L 2026

Large language models (LLMs) have emerged as the dominant paradigm for robotic task planning using natural language instructions. However, trained on general internet data, LLMs are not inherently aligned with the embodiment, skill sets, and limitations of real-world robotic systems. Inspired by the

OpenPyRo-A1: An Open Python-Based Low-Cost Bimanual Robot for Embodied AI

RA-L 2026

Many real-world tasks, such as assembly, cooking, and object handovers, require bi-manual coordination. Learning such skills via imitation remains challenging due to dataset scarcity, mainly caused by the high cost of bi-manual robotic platforms and barriers to entry in robotics software. To address

Efficient and Reactive Planning for High Speed Robot Air Hockey

IROS 2021poster

Highly dynamic robotic tasks require high-speed and reactive robots. These tasks are particularly challenging due to the physical constraints, hardware limitations, and the high uncertainty of dynamics and sensor measures. To face these issues, it’s crucial to design robotics agents that generate pr…
