About
In order for robots to be capable of manipulating a wide range of novel objects in unstructured environments, they must have the ability to perceive and reason about 3D geometry. By doing so, robots will then be able to use its 3D visual information to better inform actions that it can execute in the 3D world. However, there are a number of challenges we must overcome. These challenges include: how to acquire and represent 3D information, and how to learn 3D representations which are useful for manipulation agents. Ultimately, we hope this workshop will help the community make progress towards understanding how we can build more generalist manipulation agents.

Call for Workshop Papers
We invite submissions of papers on the topic of 3D visual representations for robot manipulation. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Acquiring 3D geometric information
- Representing raw 3D geometry
- Learning on top of 3D geometric inputs
- Building 3D representations which are useful for manipulation agents
- Connecting 3D visual representations to action spaces
- Utility of foundation models / LLMs for visual manipulation tasks
