TL;DR - NeoteAI and Fudan University released three technical reports and open-source resources that make tactile sensing a core input for robot learning. Their approach unifies heterogeneous sensors and uses predicted touch signals to improve fine manipulation and world-model planning.

  • NeoData contains over 30,000 hours of visual-tactile interactions across 450 tasks and six robot platforms; 5,000 hours are open-sourced.
  • NeoForce learns a transferable tactile representation across sensor formats such as deformation images, capacitance matrices, and force vectors.
  • Neo-VTLA predicts tactile changes up to 50 steps ahead and reportedly improves plug insertion, key removal, and long-horizon manipulation.
  • The 7.2B-parameter Neo-TWAM jointly predicts future video, touch, and actions, outperforming cited world-model baselines in simulation and eight real-robot tasks.
