TANGO framework enables humanoid robots to navigate cluttered environments

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed TANGO, a novel vision-language framework designed for humanoid robots to navigate cluttered indoor environments. This system directly predicts whole-body joint actions, enabling coordinated movements like arm placement and torso adjustments for collision-free traversal. Trained entirely in simulation using synthesized data, TANGO has demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in vision-language navigation tasks and has been successfully deployed zero-shot on a Unitree G1 robot for real-world navigation.
