ALOHA: a robotic kit with unrivalled precision
Aloha by Trossen Robotics is a teleoperation robotics kit consisting of 2 robotic arms, the ViperX 300 6DOF, and 2 arms, the WidowX 250 6 DOF. It enables learning through imitation directly from real demonstrations collected using a custom teleoperation interface. It excels in performing precise tasks, such as battery insertion, which are generally considered to be particularly demanding in terms of accuracy, detailed calibration, and visual feedback.
The key feature of the ALOHA Kit
To overcome the challenges inherent in imitation learning, especially in domains requiring high precision, a new algorithm named Action Chunk with Transformers (ACT) has been developed. This algorithm enhances efficiency by predicting actions in chunks, thereby reducing task complexity. This approach allows for the teleoperation of tasks involving extensive physical interactions, such as precision tasks like threading cable ties or juggling ping-pong balls. Even for particularly delicate tasks, bimanual teleoperation achieves an 80 to 90% success rate, demonstrating its high effectiveness.
Implementation of learned policy
The videos below illustrate real-time implementations of policies generated using the Action Chunking with Transformers (ACT) algorithm, using only 50 demonstrations for each task.
