摘要

Humanoid loco-manipulation requires coordinating object acquisition, transport, and release from onboard sensing while responding to user commands and incomplete visual observations. We present ReGATE, a whole-body controller that combines egocentric depth, proprioception, and online locomotion and contact commands. Built on a teacher-student framework, ReGATE integrates interaction-state estimation through a recurrent adapter that predicts object geometry and physical contact without an external object-pose estimator. Head-wise and global gates regulate visual updates to a proprioceptive pathway. A visual-grounding and corruption curriculum trains the adapter, while phase-aware initialization increases coverage of brief contact transitions. In simulation, ReGATE achieves 85.2% success across 330 static-object acquisition trials, compared with 48.5% for VisualMimic under the same protocol, and 85.9% across 440 moving-object acquisition trials. Deployment on a Unitree G1 demonstrates commanded grasp-transport-release sequences and acquisition of laterally displaced boxes. A qualitative hardware experiment further demonstrates successful box acquisition when the camera is occluded after an initial observation and before the contact command. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to extend recurrent gated fusion of onboard depth and proprioception from perceptive locomotion to humanoid loco-manipulation under interrupted visual sensing.
