A Future Roadmap for Sensorimotor Skill Learning for Robot Manipulation
May 13th, Location: G6, North
In recent years, the field of general-purpose robot manipulation has seen exciting progress, showcasing a wide range of success in sensorimotor skill learning. However, unlike research in assembly and logistics manipulations where there are clearly defined, practically/industrially driven tasks to solve, general-purpose robot manipulation research—geared towards everyday situations—lacks community-wise agreement on which robotics tasks are most important to evaluate. To propel this field, our workshop aims to sketch the future roadmap of sensorimotor skill learning for robot manipulation and focuses on the following questions:
- Which manipulation tasks can today's robots solve, and which tasks are still unsolved?
- What are the most important tasks to evaluate in order to advance the field?
- What assumptions should we allow when evaluating these tasks?
We envision that the workshop will help the manipulation community make progress toward understanding which problems we should focus on to build more generalizable and powerful manipulation robots.
