Abstract: Autonomous robotics has tremendous promise for future connected industrial use. In this talk, a Cross-modal Reasoning Model (CMRM) with a novel zero-shot Imitation Learning policy is proposed to tackle long-horizontal robotic RFID inventory tasks. To facilitate the training and assessment of CMRM, we constructed a Unity3D-based virtual platform that can be configured into various environments with the capability of offering photo-realistic objects and precise physical features (gravities, appearance, and more), which provides a close emulation of real environments for training and testing robots. The solution has been evaluated in various environments and demonstrated with outstanding performance.
