About YOR-Dex

YOR-Dex combines an omnidirectional mobile base, a vertical lift, two seven-degree-of-freedom arms, and interchangeable dexterous hands. Onboard sensing and compute support coordinated whole-body teleoperation, navigation, and autonomous manipulation learned from robot and human demonstrations.

Control and navigation

The controller coordinates the base, lift, and arms to track end-effector targets in the world frame. Onboard mapping supports movement through changing environments.

Whole-body teleoperation

Tracked wrist motion commands the end effectors, while finger tracking controls the hands. The base and lift move as part of the same coordinated system.

Mapping & obstacle avoidance

Synchronized map and camera views show the robot navigating around obstacles while updating its map.

Learning

Learning from Robot Demonstrations

Cup pickup and door opening learned from whole-body teleoperation.

Learning from Human Demonstrations

Six household tasks learned from robot-free human demonstrations, shown at normal speed.

Pretrained Dexterous Grasping

Grasping six objects using Human Universal Grasping, a pretrained RGB-D model.

Return repeatability

YOR-Dex returns to the same end-effector target after navigating through the lab.
