Researchers have introduced CoStream, a novel framework designed to enable complex manipulation tasks in robotics by composing simpler, independent behaviors. This approach leverages foundation models and diverse sensing modalities to create a semantic behavior for spatial constraints, a predictive behavior for trajectory forecasting, and a reactive behavior for high-frequency corrections. CoStream orchestrates these components through a shared SE(3) interface, allowing them to combine into a single pose command for execution by a compliant controller. The framework has demonstrated success on eight real-world tasks, including precision assembly and object transfer, showing robust recovery from perturbations. AI
