  "title": "UMI-3D: Extending Universal Manipulation Interface from Vision-Limited to 3D Spatial Perception",
  "summary": "We present UMI-3D, a multimodal extension of the Universal Manipulation Interface (UMI) for robust and scalable data collection in embodied manipulation. While UMI enables portable, wrist-mounted data acquisition, its reliance on monocular visual SLAM makes it vulnerable to occlusions, dynamic scenes, and tracking failures, limiting its applicability in real-world environments. UMI-3D addresses these limitations by introducing a lightweight and low-cost LiDAR sensor tightly integrated into the w",
