Low-Fidelity Visuo-Tactile Pre-Training Improves Vision-Only Manipulation Performance

IROS 2025

Tactile perception is essential for real-world manipulation tasks, yet the high cost and fragility of tactile sensors can limit their practicality. In this work, we explore BeadSight (a low-cost, open-source tactile sensor) alongside a tactile pre-training approach, an alternative method to precise,

VITaL Pretraining: Visuo-Tactile Pretraining for Tactile and Non-Tactile Manipulation Policies

ICRA 2025

Tactile information is a critical tool for dexterous manipulation. As humans, we rely heavily on tactile information to understand objects in our environments and how to interact with them. We use touch not only to perform manipulation tasks but also to learn how to perform these tasks. Therefore, t
