YOCO: You Only Calibrate Once! Fast Mocap Calibration for Dexterous Teleoperation

We present YOCO, a fast few-shot, fine-tuning-free calibration framework that corrects biased hand-pose streams from a small set of paired raw and target poses.

Key points

  • Dexterous teleoperation requires reliable human-hand state estimations.
  • Instead of optimizing a separate model for every operator or session, YOCO conditions a calibration HyperNet on the paired examples and predicts LoRA-style updates for a frozen MANO hand-estimation module, turning per-user calibration into a lightweight feed-forward adaptation step while preserving the geometric prior of MANO and the efficiency of a compact estimator.
  • We train YOCO with synthetic drift augmentations on InterHand2.6M and evaluate on augmented InterHand sequences, offline real glove data, and dexterous teleoperation tasks.
  • Across these settings, YOCO improves calibration efficiency, hand-state estimation quality and teleoperation performance compared with uncalibrated input and standard calibration baselines.
