The WBCD Competition addresses the gap between academic research and industrial applications in bimanual teleoperation and learning from demonstration. While research often focuses on self-designed tasks, it overlooks key industry metrics like speed, reliability, cost-effectiveness, and the learning curve. This competition provides standardized benchmarking tasks that reflect real-world challenges and encourages collaboration between researchers and industry professionals. Participants can use various methods (e.g., puppeteering, VR, exoskeletons) to complete tasks and collect data, with evaluation based on task quality, data speed, and policy performance.
