TACROSS: An Efficient and Low-Cost Scalable Human Touch System Across Heterogeneous Tactile Sensors for Dexterous Robot Learning

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.11945v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Collecting tactile demonstrations on robots is costly and slow, motivating the use of lower-cost human tactile gloves for scalable data collection. However, human capacitive/piezoresistive gloves and robotic tactile sensors differ fundamentally in transduction principle, sensor layout, spatial resolution, and dynamic response, making alignment of raw sensor channels ill-posed. To address this problem, we present TACROSS, a scalable system for learning from human touch and transferring it to robots that bridges this heterogeneity by aligning tactile streams at the level of contact events rather than raw sensor values. The hardware component of TACROSS integrates a piezoresistive glove with five layers and a cost of USD 10.86 with 285 sensing
