NVIDIA just announced EgoScale 🤖🧠 NVIDIA Research has uncovered a log-linear scaling law for robot dexterity by pretraining VLA models on over 20,000 hours of egocentric human video This massive dataset is 20 times larger than previous efforts and proves that robot intelligence follows a predictable path: the more human data, the lower the loss The secret is a simple recipe combining large-scale human pretraining with a small amount of aligned human-robot mid-training to bridge the gap In testing, this method boosted the average success rate by 54% on a 22-DoF robotic hand compared to policies built without pretraining EgoScale also enables one-shot task adaptation and works across different hardware, suggesting that human motion is a universal motor prior for robots Website: Paper: Source: NVIDIA Research #Robot #Humanoid #Robotics #AI #EmbodiedAI #PhysicalAI #NVIDIA #EgoScale #GR00T

Full-body joint tracking + smart gloves capture every nuance of human motion, which is retargeted in real-time to a humanoid robot (here, Tesla Optimus) for smooth teleoperation. This is the power of inertial motion capture. More than control, mocap is the gold standard for collecting high-fidelity humanoid training data. Advanced AI algorithms transform raw accelerometer streams into precise 3D joint poses, turning human movement into lifelike robot action.

Egocentric Videos for Robot Training 🧵 Researchers at NYU and UC Berkeley published research where they developed a system called EgoZero that trains robots using human demonstration videos recorded with smart glasses. 👓 The system converts first-person human actions into 3D point-based state-action representations. The policies executed on a gripper-equipped robot, achieved a 70% zero-shot success rate across seven manipulation tasks, with only 20 minutes of human data per task. EgoZero stands as one of the solid empirical proofs that egocentric smart-glass video collected from everyday human behavior can serve as powerful, scalable training data for real robot learning.

The problem with humanoid teleoperation is that it is expensive and difficult to scale Enter NVIDIA's EgoScale: - A VLA model pretrained on thousands hours of egocentric human videos. - Mid-trained via 50 hours of human + 4 hours of robot "play" data for human-robot alignment. - Fine-tuned with very few examples of task-specific robot teleoperation (100 or fewer per task). - Successfully transfers across 5-finger (Sharpa) and 3-finger (Unitree G1) robot hands. - Performance scales predictably as data increases.

VLAI Robotics Launches High-Dexterity Dual-Arm Robot Starting at ~$5,500 USD VLAI Robotics, utilizing the open-source design of Japan’s OpenArm team, has introduced a high-dexterity, low-cost bimanual robotic system. The product is priced from 39,900 RMB (approximately 5,500 USD), making high-level research tools accessible to institutions and developers. The robot features a human-scale, arm-hand integrated design with up to 16 DOF (8 DOF per arm, including the gripper). It can handle a dual-arm peak payload of 12 kg while maintaining high precision. A key breakthrough is its ability to replicate human upper limb movement trajectories, which enhances data quality for imitation learning and remote operation. VLAI Robotics handled the domestic engineering, manufacturing, and VLA (Vision-Language-Action) algorithm integration, with quality control organized according to the strict standards of the OpenArm R&D framework. The robot is highly adaptable for research, education, and Physical AI training, supporting easy expansion for features like VR teleoperation.

Humanoid robotics is entering a new phase： Xiaomi Robotics 0 (XR-0) explores learning manipulation directly from large-scale human videos — aligning video understanding with robot embodiment to generate executable actions. Watch humans->learn representations ->map to robot control. Robot data is scarce. Internet video is not. If video pretraining transfers reliably into embodied control, the scaling law of robotics changes. Deployment speed becomes a function of model alignment, not just hardware iteration. We’re moving from engineered skills to learned behavior. That’s a structural shift. project:

Today we are excited to open up Neuracore to the academic community! Neuracore is a new data foundation built to accelerate robot learning by removing one of the field’s biggest bottlenecks: capturing and working with high-fidelity multimodal robotics data. For the first time, researchers can store, view, and work with robotics data in a cloud-native system built specifically for large-scale learning, and we are making this core platform completely free for academia. The platform lets teams capture every sensor at its native rate, store and visualize data without loss, and then train and deploy models locally using our open-source code (Link in the comments). We are rolling out access to select academic institutions first. Anyone with an academic email can sign up, and if your institution is not part of the initial rollout, you will be able to join the waitlist directly. Beyond providing this infrastructure, we see an opportunity to build a global community where engineers and researchers can share, collaborate, and advance the frontier of robot learning together. Supported by our recent $3M pre-seed round led by Earlybird VC, we are excited to take this mission even further. Our long-term goal is for Neuracore to become the natural home for cutting-edge robot learning algorithms and real-world robotics experimentation, helping accelerate the next wave of Physical AI.

No wonder they say teleoperation is dead Peking University’s DAGroup released HumanNet, a massive 1 million hour dataset of human-centric videos that turns everyday internet footage into gold for embodied AI. It’s got first-person and third-person views, super detailed actions, object interactions, tool use, and long sequences of real behavior. Everything’s cleaned up and annotated with 3D poses, SLAM tracks, and robot-ready labels. The crazy part is,Training on just 1,000 hours of their first-person videos performs as well as (or even slightly better than) 100 hours of actual robot teleop data on downstream tasks. Basically, human videos can now stand in for expensive robot data. Scaling laws for robotics just got a whole lot more realistic. Human priors + smart curation = the future of world models.

Why it matters ✅ Learns robot policies from 20 minutes of human video; zero robot demos ✅ Generalizes to new objects, views, and even robot morphologies ✅ Uses 3D points for interpretable, spatially grounded learning ✅ Deploys directly to real-world robots with strong zero-shot success Thank you, Vincent Liu, for sharing!!!

It uses a wearable exoskeleton robotic hand: a person simply wears the Gen DAS Dex and can flexibly complete various tasks, while simultaneously capturing the entire human motion trajectory and converting it into high-quality data for use by the humanoid robot. >23 degrees of freedom omnidirectional hand capture with millimeter-level precision >Tactile and visual fusion >Sub-millisecond head-hand synchronization

Teaching robots to perform dexterous manipulation tasks currently requires teleoperation, which limits demonstration quality, speed, and scalability. Instead, why not use human videos? The problem is that a human hand isn’t a robot hand, so data must be retargeted using simulation to resolve issues like collisions and interpenetration when controlling the hand. In VideoManip, Hongyi Chen and co-authors built a system to solve this problem, taking in RGB videos of humans performing manipulation tasks and using them to create accurate simulations with which to learn robot policies. Watch episode #73 of RoboPapers, hosted by Michael Cho - Rbt/Acc and Chris Paxton, now to learn more!

Teaching robots from human video is an important part of overcoming the “data gap” in robotics, but many of the details still need to be worked out. Homanga Bharadhwaj tells us about two recent research papers, Gen2Act and Spider, which go over different aspects of the problem: Gen2Act uses generative video models to create a reference of how a task should be performed given a language prompt; then, it uses a multi-purpose policy that can “translate” from human video to robot motion. However, Gen2Act has its limitations, in particular when it comes to dexterous, contact-rich tasks. That’s where SPIDER comes in: it uses human data together with simulation to train policies across many different humanoid hands and datasets. Also of note is that this is our first episode with our new rotating co-host, Jiafei Duan. To learn more, watch Episode #57 of RoboPapers now, with Chris Paxton and Jiafei Duan!
