Have you ever wanted to pet a longhorn? At @texas_robotics, we put our own little Texan spin on some classic tactile illusions! Come check out some very touch-friendly swag at our exhibit booth tomorrow 10-2 at White Cane Day at TSBVI! @TSBVI_Outreach whitecaneday.org

Ever wondered which data from large datasets (like OXE) actually helps when training/tuning a policy for specific tasks? We present DataMIL, a framework for measuring how each training sample influences policy performance, hence enabling effective data selection 🧵

A little late to this but excited to share that DataMIL won the best paper at the Data workshop at #CoRL! If you haven't already, check it out! 👇

Excited that Casper 👻 is accepted to CoRL 2025! #CoRL2025 A big thank you to all the collaborators :)

Meet Casper👻, a friendly robot sidekick who shadows your day, decodes your intents on the fly, and lends a hand while you stay in control! Instead of passively receiving commands, what if a robot actively sense what you need in the background, and step in when confident? (1/n)
