Recent studies have shown that dexterous hands work well for power grasp, but for precision oriented tasks, parallel grippers are still more common.🤔


We present Power💪 to Precision🎯, a co-design framework that optimizes both control and finger-tip geometry for multi fingered robotic hands to achieve both power and precision.

Technical Summary Video

Real-to-Real Deployment

Our framework enables teleoperation of fine grained manipulation tasks using dexterous hands and improves deployment robustness. The following video shows real to real deployment of the framework. Policies are trained with teleoperation data.

Sim-to-Real Deployment

Along with the real-to-real deployment, we also showcase the sim-to-real deployment of the framework. Policies are trained with simulation data and exhibit better spatial & object generalizability.

Co-Design Framework

We introduce a co-design framework that jointly optimizes control and fingertip geometry for multi-fingered robotic hands, enabling both power and precise manipulation.

Control Optimization

Simplified contact with parallel finger motions greatly improves the robustness of the resulting actions.
Method (Control)

Fingertip Geometry Optimization

The fingertip geometry is modeled as a contact plane and optimized using a neural physics surrogate model.
