Towards Miniature Humanoid Tele-Loco-Manipulation Using Virtual Reality and Reinforcement Learning

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.20399v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Full-sized humanoid robot capabilities have grown exponentially in recent years, aiming towards general-purpose deployment in human environments. A popular control method used by manufacturers utilizes Virtual Reality for upper-body teleoperation and Reinforcement Learning for lower-body balance and locomotion control. As a result, a single remote operator can see, manipulate, and navigate about a real, distant physical environment. This powerful control stack is often relegated to expensive full-sized robots, many of which are inaccessible to the research community. Miniature humanoids are more prevalent, but employ less biomimicry in their design (e.g. fewer sensors, Degrees of Freedom, etc) and lack similar developments. This paper descr
