Distracted Robot: How Visual Clutter Undermine Robotic Manipulation

ICRA 2026poster

In this work, we propose an evaluation protocol for examining the performance of robotic manipulation policies in cluttered scenes. Contrary to prior works, we approach evaluation from a psychophysical perspective, therefore we use a unified measure of clutter that accounts for environmental factors…

Improving Robotic Manipulation Robustness Via NICE Scene Surgery

ICRA 2026poster

Learning robust visuomotor policies for robotic manipulation remains a challenge in real-world settings, where visual distractors can significantly degrade performance and safety. In this work, we propose an effective and scalable framework, Naturalistic Inpainting for Context Enhancement (NICE). Ou…

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
