Embodied AI has become a pivotal domain in modern robotics, driven by the growing need for robots to interact seamlessly with their environments and autonomously perform complex tasks. While significant progress has been made in single-agent systems, the next frontier lies in multi-agent collaboration and the ability to handle diverse manipulation tasks with greater precision and adaptability.

This challenge, hosted within the MEIS workshop at CVPR 2025, aims to push the boundaries of Embodied AI through robotic dual-arm manipulation tasks. Leveraging the RoboTwin simulation platform alongside the AgileX Cobot-Magic and Tack-Pika robotic platforms, the challenge is designed to tackle the complexities of robotic manipulation in both simulated and real-world environments. Participants will engage in Rigid Object Manipulation and Tactile Manipulation, each addressing unique aspects of robotic dexterity and control.

Looking ahead, the insights gained from this challenge will pave the way for more sophisticated multi-agent systems capable of handling real-world tasks with high levels of autonomy. The integration of advanced AI techniques—such as generative models and imitation learning will be key to overcoming current limitations and unlocking the full potential of robotic manipulation.

We invite researchers, engineers, and innovators worldwide to participate in this challenge and contribute to the advancement of Embodied AI in robotic manipulation. Together, we can push the boundaries of what’s possible and shape a future where intelligent, capable robots seamlessly support both industrial applications and everyday human activities.
