Sharpa presents MoDE-VLA research for contact-rich bimanual manipulation
Key points
- Sharpa released research on MoDE-VLA and RL-augmented teleoperation for contact-rich bimanual manipulation.
- The team demonstrated the system on autonomous apple peeling, using dual dexterous hands to coordinate grip, rotation, and peeling in a high-precision task.
- The method combines shared-autonomy primitives with multimodal inputs including vision, force, and tactile sensing to improve dexterous robot control.
Company context
Founded by leadership from Hesai Technology, with operations across Singapore (R&D), Shanghai (manufacturing), and Mountain View (business). Focuses on embodied AI systems combining dexterous manipulation hardware with model-driven control. Develops both robotic platforms and in-house AI models for long-horizon task execution.
