Project page for Amazon/UCSD/UMich's Whole-Body Dexterity (WBD). It details the teleoperation setup: all trials run by a single skilled operator in an Xsens mocap suit streaming SMPL body motion as commands, with the upper body commanded by the operator and lower body handled by a separate controller. Same headline result: 90% success across 50 real-robot trials on Unitree G1.
