completed

MyoChallenge 2022

Learning Physiological Dexterity

Sponsorship / prizes: $75,000+

First MyoChallenge: contact-rich manipulation with a physiologically realistic musculoskeletal hand — die reorientation and baoding-ball dual-object rotation.

Tracks

Die reorientation

Reconfigure a die to match desired goal orientations without dropping it — delicate multi-muscle coordination.

Baoding balls

Simultaneous rotation of two balls over the palm without dropping them — dexterity and coordination.

Timeline

  • Phase 1 — Open

    12 August – 20 October

  • Phase 2 — Play-off
