Researchers have introduced roto 2.0, a new benchmark for tactile-based reinforcement learning in robotics. This benchmark utilizes GPU parallelism and focuses on end-to-end "blind" manipulation tasks across four different robotic morphologies. The team demonstrated a significant performance improvement, with their agents achieving 13 Baoding ball rotations in 10 seconds, which is substantially faster than existing methods. By open-sourcing the environments and baseline models, they aim to lower the entry barrier for researchers in this field. AI
