Bimanual Robot

Bimanual robotics focuses on developing robots capable of dexterous manipulation using two arms, mirroring human capabilities for complex tasks. Current research emphasizes improving control algorithms, often leveraging reinforcement learning, imitation learning, and large language models to coordinate complex movements and handle diverse objects, including deformable ones. This field is crucial for advancing robotics in areas like agriculture (harvesting), healthcare (assistance), and household tasks, where two-handed manipulation is essential for efficiency and safety. The development of large-scale datasets and novel evaluation metrics are also driving progress.
