人形机器人做汉堡火了! 伯克利等全新ViTacFormer让机器人操作稳如老手
机器之心· 2025-07-10 06:07
尽管已有研究尝试引入触觉信息提升策略表现,但往往停留在简单拼接或辅助通道的层面,缺乏结构性设计,难以充分发挥视触结合的潜力。 为应对上述挑战,来自 UC 伯克利、北京大学、Sharpa 等机构的研究人员提出 ViTacFormer,一个融合视觉与触觉信息,并引入未来触觉预测机制的统一框架,专 为提升灵巧操控中的精度、稳定性与持续控制能力而设计 。 灵巧操控是机器人实现类人交互的关键能力,尤其在涉及多阶段、细致接触的任务中,对控制精度与响应时机提出了极高要求。尽管视觉驱动的方法近年来快速 发展,但在遮挡、光照变化或复杂接触环境下,单一视觉感知常常失效。 触觉感知为机器人提供了与环境交互的直接反馈,在判断接触状态、施力时机等方面扮演着不可替代的角色。然而,当前大多数方法仅将触觉信息作为静态输入 进行融合,缺乏真正有效的多模态联合建模机制。更为关键的是,现有方法往往只关注当前的触觉状态,忽视了对未来触觉变化的预测。这种短视导致机器人在 连续操作中难以提前准备、策略难以稳定,特别是在需要时序感知和力觉判断的任务中表现不佳。 近日,一个「人形机器人做汉堡」的视频火爆全网! 这个具备 [主动视觉]、[高精度触觉] 以及 ...
