How to Train your Tactile Model: Tactile Perception with Multi-fingered Robot Hands

Description

Rapid deployment of new tactile sensors is essential for scalable robotic manipulation, especially in multi-fingered hands equipped with vision-based tactile sensors. However, current methods for inferring contact properties rely heavily on convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which, while effective on known sensors, require large, sensor-specific datasets. Furthermore, they require retraining for each new sensor due to differences in lens properties, illumination, and sensor wear. Here we intr
