Researchers have developed HERO, a modular system for humanoid robots to grasp objects in diverse real-world settings. This system combines large vision models for scene understanding with a novel residual-aware end-effector tracking policy for precise control. HERO achieved a 2.44cm end-effector tracking error, significantly outperforming previous methods, and demonstrated reliable grasping of everyday items in environments like offices and coffee shops.
