  • The TACT paper introduces tactile-modality extended ACT for humanoid whole-body contact manipulation from human teleoperation data.
  • The system is integrated with retargeting and locomotion control and demonstrated on the life-size RHP7 Kaleido humanoid.
  • The work gives Kaleido/RHP a concrete tactile whole-body manipulation benchmark.
