HOI-Retarget Enables Contact-Centric Retargeting for Humanoid Robots

HOI-Retarget is a new method that transfers human-object interaction (HOI) motions onto humanoid robots using contact-centric retargeting and windowed trajectory optimization. This approach facilitates large-scale motion-data generation for robots learning from demonstration.

HOI-Retarget is a new method that transfers human-object interaction (HOI) motions onto humanoid robots using contact-centric retargeting and windowed trajectory optimization. This approach facilitates large-scale motion-data generation for robots learning from demonstration.

AI-assisted summary based on the listed source.

Learning from demonstration (LfD) has enabled humanoid robots to acquire diverse whole-body skills, but extending this paradigm to human-object interaction (HOI) is limited by the availability of robot-compatible interaction references. We present HOI-Retarget, a contact-centric retargeting method that transfers...

By addressing the challenge of robot-compatible interaction references, HOI-Retarget advances the ability of humanoid robots to perform complex human-object interactions. This can enhance robot skill acquisition and practical applications in dynamic environments.

Hardware and robotics watchers may want to track whether this becomes a product, benchmark, or deployment signal.
