Human-Centric Transferable Tactile Pre-Training for Dexterous Robotic Manipulation

As an essential modality for dexterous and contact-rich tasks, tactile sensing provides precise force feedback that cannot be reliably inferred from vision. However, limited by hardware and data collection systems, existing datasets with tactility remain small in scale and narrow in contact coverage. Meanwhile, Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models with tactile modality are constrained on dynamics-agnostic post-training, which limits the performance ceiling on downstream tasks. In this paper, we present H-Tac, a large-scale tactile-action dataset with 160-hour egocentric human videos containing more than 300 tasks and 135k episodes. Building upon this, we propose Transferable Tactile Pre-Tr...
