ModPack: Extensible Teleoperation Interface for Bimanual Mobile Manipulation
arXiv cs.RO0 views
arXiv:2607.19479v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Existing teleoperation systems are often tailored to specific robot hardware and task domains, limiting their scalability and adaptability. We present ModPack, a modular and extensible teleoperation system designed to support diverse robot embodiments and task requirements within a unified framework. At the core of ModPack is a self-contained wearable "backpack" that integrates onboard computation, power, communication, and data storage. Built on top of this shared interface, the system supports plug-and-play capability modules including joint-level teleoperation with haptic feedback, mobile manipulation, and active perception. Experiments across two distinct robot platforms and real-world mobile manipulation tasks demonstrate that ModPack provides a flexible and reusable framework for data collection and policy learning and collects higher quality data than a robot-free alternative. To support future research, we open-source the complete hardware design and software stack. Project website: https://modpack-robotics.github.io/
