SUMMARY:PhyRC: Physical Robotic Caregiving Challenge: ICRA 2025 Competition
DESCRIPTION:“Millions of people worldwide require physical assistance with daily tasks\, and with an aging population\, this number is rising. Caregiving robots have the potential to increase care recipient independence and reduce caregiver workload. Despite considerable recent progress in the caregiving robotics field\, it remains challenging to assess the state of the art\, compare different approaches\, and organize efforts around pressing open research questions. Simulation platforms such as RCareWorld and Assistive Gym make significant strides\, but the need for real-world standardization remains. \nThe PhyRC (Physical Robotic Caregiving) Challenge at ICRA 2025 (PhyRC) would be the first ever competition for caregiving robots. Our competition will feature two real-world tasks: (1) robot-assisted dressing; and (2) robot-assisted bed bathing. Dressing and bathing are both crucial activities of daily living (ADLs) that are also very challenging for state-of-the-art robotics\, requiring deformable object manipulation\, physical human-robot interaction\, longhorizon planning\, and reasoning under partial observability.”

SUMMARY:AI Olympics With RealAIGym: Towards Global Policies for Swing up in the Real World
DESCRIPTION:“As artificial intelligence gains new capabilities\, it becomes important to evaluate it on real-world tasks. While software such as ChatGPT has recently revolutionized certain areas of AI\, athletic intelligence seems to still be elusive in the AI community. To have better robots in the future which can perform a wide variety of dynamic tasks in uncertain environments\, the physical or athletic intelligence of robots must be improved. However\, this is quite challenging. In particular\, the fields of robotics and reinforcement learning (RL) lack standardized benchmarking tasks on real hardware. To facilitate reproducibility and stimulate algorithmic advancements\, the 3rd AI Olympics competition is being proposed to be held at ICRA 2025 in Atlanta following the inaugural run at IJCAI 2023 in Macau (https://ijcai-23.dfkibremen. de/competitions/ai_olympics/\, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYDH1v1FqF8 for a video summary)\, based on the RealAIGym project and 2nd edition of this competition at IROS 2024 in Abu Dhabi (https://ai-olympics.dfki-bremen.de/). While the inaugural run of this competition focussed on comparing the performance of various learning and control methods on the real acrobot/pendubot systems\, the second edition at IROS focussed not only on achieving the best scores but also on achieving robustness to disturbances during the execution. \nAt ICRA 2025\, the focus of the challenge would be to develop a global policy that can solve the swing up problem from any configuration in the state space thus improving the controllers in the 3rd edition of this challenge. This will be tested by randomly disturbing the system with very large (compared to IROS 2024) external disturbances while it performs the swingup task. The challenge will involve two stages: simulation and realrobot experiments where teams (and their agents) can compete to get the highest score to win some cool prizes! We invite people from all communities (AI/ML/RL\, Optimal Control\, Heuristics\, etc.) to participate in this competition on a set of standardized dynamic tasks on well-known prototypical systems using standardized hardware.”

SUMMARY:The 4th Robotic Sim2Real Challenges
DESCRIPTION:“Simulators have significantly accelerated engineering development in robotics\, making a profound impact on advancing technological progress in this field. However\, as simulation models cannot perfectly replicate robots’ behavior in real world\, there exists a notable sim-to-real gap. Given the high cost of acquiring large amounts of real-world robot data\, data augmentation using simulators is an essential step towards advanced robot intelligence. Robotic Sim2Real Challenges aim to encourage more students and researchers to explore the cooperative method using simulators and real-robots\, and to systematically investigate effective approaches for their matching. \nHopefully\, this will lay a theoretical foundation and provide practical experience for the sustainable development of embodied intelligence. Robotic Sim2Real Challenges have already been held for 3 times in conjunction with ICRA Since 20221. For ICRA 2025\, we propose the 4th Robotic Sim2Real Challenges with two tracks: the mobile manipulation track and the flying robot track. The former is a consecutive event of pervious AgileX Sim2Real Challenge (AXS). The latter is a consecutive event of pervious RoboMaster University Sim2Real Challenge (RMUS) with a new flying robot instead of DJI’s RoboMaster EP (DJI’s product EP has been discontinued.). For both tracks\, we provide a photorealistic simulator supporting end-to-end embodied AI model training and parallel reinforcement learning training.”

SUMMARY:Robotic Grasping and Manipulation Competition
DESCRIPTION:The 10th Robotic Grasping and Manipulation Competition (RGMC) at ICRA 2025. RGMC has been running for nine editions at either the IEEE/RAS International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) or the IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS)\, since 2016 [1]. Across the editions\, we engaged the community with various tasks for manufacturing\, service robots\, and logistics. These tasks include assembling and disassembling boards\, hand-in-hand grasping\, picking and placing various objects\, pouring liquids into a cup\, bin picking\, rearranging and setting formal tables\, folding and unfolding cloths\, and receiving objects handed over by a person. RGMC will advance research and technology towards more realistic scenarios that can be encountered in daily activities at home or in warehouses\, and will increase the interest of the community in solving the open challenges associated with robotic grasping and manipulation.

SUMMARY:What Bimanual Teleoperation and Learning from Demonstration Can Do (WBCD)
DESCRIPTION:What Bimanual Teleoperation and Learning from Demonstration Can Do (WBCD) Today (in 2025)\nThere have been lots of awesome works around the topic of bimanual teleoperation and learning from demonstration\, employing various human sensing systems and robot embodiments. To name a few\, ALOHA\, Mobile ALOHA\, DexCap\, Open-TeleVision\, HATO\, GELLO\, AirExo\, UMI\, etc. However\, researchers design and evaluate on tasks that they come up with and perform teleoperation themselves. Also\, there are lots of metrics that are critical for industry that are not evaluated in the academic research works\, such as motion speed\, system robustness\, cost efficiencies\, and difficulty to learn an effective policy. \nTherefore\, there has been a demand in the industry to set up a common set of tasks benchmark that is practically valuable and reflects various axes and levels of difficulty. The goal of this competition is to bring together researchers with industry and figure out the best fits between valuable tasks and technology solutions. \nIn this competition\, participants are invited to use a wide range of ways: puppeteering\, VR\, exoskeleton\, hand-held grippers\, movement-tracking gloves\, or algorithmic human hand sensing to perform challenging and practically valuable manipulation tasks and collect data meanwhile. We will evaluate the teams in terms of their task completion quality\, data collection speed\, and performance of policy learned using the collected data.”
