Three fingers can get a lot done.
Latest release from
@XSquareRobot: TwinDEX, a robot free dexterous manipulation system pairing a wearable 3 finger, 9 DoF collector with a closely matched deployment hand.
The pair aligns kinematics, contact geometry, sensing and timing, while synchronizing multiview RGB, 6 DoF wrist pose, finger states and fingertip tactile data.
They report up to 5.3x the effective throughput of on robot teleoperation and say a policy trained from only a few hundred robot free episodes completed a 24 step chemistry experiment autonomously in one run.
