MOE-Hair was a fantastic collaboration led by @uksang.bsky.social , contributing a balance of technical methods and human studies to advance soft robot hair care. My favorite observation from a participant was that they "don't have to talk to [a human stylist]." Is this a limitation for future work?

Super fun project lead by @ycyao.bsky.social. I'm still amazed by the result--a soft robot learned to perform a dynamic non-prehensile in-hand manipulation without sim, sim2real, or data-hungry algorithms.

Hello world! I'm a PhD student at CMU in robotics, at the intersection of vision and robot manipulation.
