LadderMan: Learning Humanoid Perceptive Ladder Climbing 文章

arXiv:2606.05873v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Humanoid robots hold great promise for operating in human-centered environments, yet ladder climbing remains one of the most challenging tasks due to sparse footholds and handholds, complex whole-body coordination, and sensitivity to perception and control errors. We present \textbf{LadderMan}, a unified system that enables humanoid robots to robustly climb diverse ladders and perform manipulation under such constrained conditions. Our climbing policy is built on a scalable two-stage learning pipeline, where we use hybrid motion tracking to learn multiple climbing experts from a single reference motion, and distill these experts into a unified depth-based visuomotor climbing policy via hybrid imitation and reinforcement learning. To enable real-world deployment, we leverage vision foundation models to bridge the sim-to-real gap in depth perception.
