Great direction!

A review on tactile end-to-end robot policies Can learning unify the tactile experience across different sensing modalities?

i read five papers on tactile robot policies and wrote about them: medium.com/correll-lab/...

the first step of me writing my prelim and i hope to have some more interesting synthesis soon. this is in no way a comprehensive review and i welcome recommendations of papers to read!
