X Square Robot 发布 TwinDEX，一对协同设计的三指九自由度灵巧操作接口，一个可穿戴用于数据采集，一个用于机器人部署，两者共享相同的运动学、接触面、外观和传感器。
Dexterous robots have a data problem that gets expensive very quickly, and recently, so many brilliant data projects are coming to resolve this problem.
X Square Robot released TwinDEX, a matched wearable-and-robotic hand system that lets humans collect robot training data without using a robot. This will potentially remove one of the biggest limits on scaling dexterous robot learning.
Claims up to 5.3X the effective collection throughput of on-robot teleoperation
TwinDEX combines a wearable three-finger data-collection hand with a closely matched robotic hand so human demonstrations can transfer directly into robot control without collecting them on the robot itself.
What if a dexterous robot could learn a 20+ step chemistry experiment without a single on-robot training demo? Meet TwinDEX: a pair of co-designed, three-finger, nine-DoF dexterous manipulation interface: one wearable for data collection, one for robot deployment. The twinned design shares identical kinematics, contact surfaces, visual appearance, and sensors across collection and deployment — keeping observations and actions aligned end to end. Trained from scratch on only a few hundred wearable demonstrations - with zero on-robot training or intervention data - TwinDEX completed a standardized chemistry experiment involving tool switches, fine force control, and bimanual coordination. Robot-free data showed comparable learning efficiency on the multi-task evaluation, TwinDEX delivered 5.3 times effective throughput than on-robot teleoperation. TwinDEX demonstrates that high-quality robot-free data can fully substitute for on-robot teleoperation data on challenging dexterous tasks — removing the dependency on real-robot hardware that has been the central bottleneck to scaling dexterous manipulation data. This was the proof-it phase. Now comes scale: what emerges at tens of thousands, or millions, of episodes?
