Pre-training Visual Dexterity in Simulation

Excerpt

arXiv:2608.15917v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large-scale pre-training has made robot policy fine-tuning increasingly data-efficient, but this progress has largely been driven by datasets and embodiments built around simple parallel-jaw grippers. Dexterous, multi-fingered hands remain comparatively data-starved because real teleoperation is costly to scale, while human hand video is off-embodiment and requires lossy pose estimation and retargeting. We introduce Simulation Pre-training for De
