Wax on/Wax off obviously.

Still no nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, computer hacking skills...
- Flap open/close (oven door)
- Slide open/close (drawer)
- Slide in/out (slideable shelf)
- Cap open/close (screw caps)
- Pick/place (for relatively easy situations on flat surfaces, not bin picking)
- Wipe
"Wipe" doesn't have a reverse operation, and #12 is not illustrated.
The main thing here is that the robot has much force sensing, and interpreting that data is hard. So they had people do this with a teleoperator with force feedback, and fed that into a machine learning system. What this is really about is how to use force feedback data effectively. People have struggled with this for key-in-lock and part assembly for decades.
Seems like good work on a longstanding hard problem, but not a breakthrough.
