FACT learns dexterous robot manipulation from human video plus force signals
jiajunwu_cs · x · 2026-10-30
FACT combines human videos, which provide scale and motion priors for robot pretraining, with applied force data: video only captures human states and leaves intended actions implicit, and force signals fill that gap to enable learning dexterous manipulation.
