AIRoA-0: Long-Horizon, Precise, Cross-Embodiment Manipulation from Handheld Data
This paper introduces AIRoA-0 (A-0), a bimanual manipulation system trained entirely on 16,151 hours of handheld demonstrations recorded using the open-source YUBI gripper, with no robot data collected during training.
The authors report a bimanual manipulation system trained exclusively on handheld camera data without any robot-collected training data, achieving an average success rate of 78% across ten tasks while running on multiple robot platforms.

arXiv:2611.03815v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AIRoA-0 (A-0) is a bimanual manipulation system learned from 16,151 hours of handheld demonstrations, with no robot data collected at any stage. The demonstrations are recorded with YUBI, our open-source handheld gripper, which lets people record manipulation data anywhere with no robot present. From a single instruction, A-0 sorts more than a dozen small parts into the

It performs these tasks using only a camera on each wrist, with no head or scene camera, at a site where none of its training data was recorded. Across the ten tasks of our evaluation, it averages a success rate of 78%, against 27% for the strongest of four other vision-language-action
