Title: Language Conditioned Multi-Finger Dexterous Manipulation Enabled by Physical Compliance and Switching of Controllers

Abstract:
arXiv:2410.14022v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Human dexterity arises from combining high-level task reasoning with finger-level dexterity control and physical compliance at the muscle and skin layers. In robotics, large Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models demonstrate text-conditioned high-level planning across diverse manipulation tasks, typically using pincher grippers. Smaller imitation-learning policies, conversely, show success in dexterous tasks using higher degree-of-freedom (D
