TactiDex
TactiDex is a real-world tactile-guided benchmark for dexterous manipulation, aligning whole-hand tactile signals with kinematic and object states. It provides standardized evaluation metrics and a framework for tactile-driven transfer, including experiments on single and bimanual tasks.

Why it matters
Tactile feedback is essential for human-like dexterous manipulation, yet existing benchmarks focus on kinematic imitation. TactiDex addresses this gap by providing a benchmark that emphasizes contact-level human-likeness, enabling physically grounded robot execution.
Motivation
Tactile feedback is fundamental to Hand-Object Interaction (HOI), governing contact formation, force regulation, and stable manipulation, making it essential for achieving true human-like dexterous manipulation.
