Part 3/10:
Aloha Unleashed represents a major leap in robotic dexterity, particularly in bilateral manipulation—using both arms in harmony. Built upon the open-source Aloha 2 hardware platform—initially designed for simple teleoperation—this system now performs complex tasks such as tying shoelaces, hanging clothes, and conducting fine repairs on other robots.
Key Innovations
- Imitation Learning: The system begins by watching human demonstrations, then collects data to learn tasks autonomously. This method drastically reduces the amount of data needed compared to traditional programming.
