Video Friday: Humanoid Learns Tennis Skills Playing Humans

IEEE Spectrum robotics has released its latest edition of Video Friday, showcasing a variety of innovative robotics videos and announcing upcoming events in the field. Notable events include the International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) scheduled for June 1-5, 2026, in Vienna, and a Summer School on Multi-Robot Systems from July 29 to August 4, 2026, in Prague. Among the featured advancements, researchers have developed LATENT, a system designed to teach humanoid robots tennis skills by learning from imperfect human motion data. This innovation addresses the challenges of replicating human-like athleticism in robotics. Additionally, a breakthrough has been achieved in robotic manipulation, with a robot successfully peeling an apple using dual dexterous hands, showcasing significant progress in bimanual tasks. The development of MoDE-VLA, a control system that integrates vision, language, force, and touch data, further enhances the robot's ability to perform complex tasks with stability and precision. This shared-autonomy approach allows human operators to guide robots in executing intricate movements. In other highlights, collaborations between Tesollo and Hanyang University have led to advancements in robotic hand technology, while the Fluent Robotics Lab at the University of Michigan is set to present a paper on operational PR2 robots. The KAIST DRCD Lab has also demonstrated the capabilities of its humanoid robot, trained through deep reinforcement learning. As robotics continues to evolve, these innovations reflect the ongoing efforts to bridge the gap between human-like dexterity and robotic functionality.
