Researchers have developed CUBic, a new framework designed to improve robotic bimanual manipulation by unifying perception and control. This approach learns a shared representation that allows for both independent arm actions and coordinated interactions, overcoming limitations of previous methods that either decoupled or overly coupled the arms. CUBic integrates unidirectional perception aggregation, bidirectional coordination via shared codebooks, and a unified diffusion policy for perception-to-control, demonstrating superior performance on the RoboTwin benchmark.
