New mixed-reality system ORCESTRA enables VLM-driven robot programming

A new mixed-reality system called ORCESTRA has been developed for programming robot digital twins. This system allows users to interact with robot twins in a passthrough mixed-reality environment, enabling them to teach trajectories, save robot-relative episodes, or issue commands via voice or text. A vision-language model then converts these commands into structured plans for the digital twins. ORCESTRA supports various robot embodiments, including fixed-base manipulators, mobile bases, and humanoid robots, and uses mixed reality as a safety layer before physical deployment. AI

IMPACT This system could streamline robot programming by allowing natural language commands and visual interfaces, potentially accelerating adoption in various robotics applications.
