Excited to open-source GMR: General Motion Retargeting. Real-time human-to-humanoid retargeting on your laptop. Supports diverse motion formats & robots. Unlock whole-body humanoid teleoperation (e.g., TWIST). video with 🔊

Want to achieve extreme performance in motion tracking—and go beyond it? Our preprint tech report is now online, with open-source code available!

📢Thrilled to share that I'll be joining Harvard and the Kempner Institute as an Assistant Professor starting Fall 2026! I'll be recruiting students this year for the Fall 2026 admissions cycle. Hope you apply!

Introducing Masquerade 🎭: We edit in-the-wild videos to look like robot demos, and find that co-training policies with this data achieves much stronger performance in new environments. ❗Note: No real robots in these videos❗It’s all 💪🏼 ➡️ 🦾 🧵1/6

It's been over 2 years since we first released GELLO. We’ve updated the project with 3 new GELLOs to control the YAM, ARX and similar arms! Enables easy data collection for policy training (ie finetuned Pi0!). All open source contributions from 劉添慶 and hmahesh007!

Congratulations to the videomimic team for winning the best student paper award at CoRL 2025 🥹🎉 Grateful to the CoRL community for the recognition!

How can we enable finetuning of humanoid manipulation policies, directly in the real world? In our new paper, Residual Off-Policy RL for Finetuning BC Policies, we demonstrate real-world RL on a bimanual humanoid with 5-fingered hands (29 DoF) and improve pre-trained policies

I've recently started working on humanoids and this project set the bar super high for me 😂 Very impressive demo, and our team is working on many interesting projects, exciting time!

New project from Kevin Zakka I've been using + helping with! Ridiculously easy setup, typed codebase, headless vis => happy 😊

We wrote a book about representation learning! It’s fully open source, available and readable online, and covers everything from theoretical foundations to practical algorithms. 👷‍♂️ We’re hard at work updating the content for v2.0, and would love your feedback and contributions

It was a joy bringing Jason’s signature spin-kick to life on the Unitree G1. We trained it in mjlab with the BeyondMimic recipe but had issues on hardware last night (the IMU gyro was saturating). One more sim-tuning pass and we nailed it today. With Qiayuan Liao and

We open-sourced the full pipeline! Data conversion from MimicKit, training recipe, pretrained checkpoint, and deployment instructions. Train your own spin kick with mjlab: github.com/mujocolab/g1_s…

Everyone says they want general-purpose robots. We actually mean it — and we’ll make it weird, creative, and fun along the way 😎 Recruiting PhD students to work on Computer Vision and Robotics UMD Department of Computer Science for Fall 2026 in the beautiful city of Washington DC!

Brent Yi and I are at #IROS2025 to present PyRoki 🫶 Find us either: - tomorrow (tues 10:30am) in room 102C, or - anytime during the conference!

Manifold Muon stabilizes large model training, but it's expensive 💰 -- requiring an inner loop solve for each update. 💡 But you can significantly accelerate it, leading to 2.3x speedup on Thinking Machines's experiment with no performance loss! Blog and 🧵below…

😮‍💨🤖💥 Tired of building dexterous tasks by hand, collecting data forever, and still fighting with building the simulator environment? Meet GenDexHand — a generative pipeline that creates dex-hand tasks, refines scenes, and learns to solve them automatically. No hand-crafted

It's honestly been such a dream of mine to combine my two passions: dancing and robotics.

I built papiers.ai, a new interface for arXiv As we enter an era of accelerated scientific discovery, we need better tools that augment human cognition to help us keep up. Try it: visit papiers ai or swap arxiv -> papiers on any paper URL
