Keypoint Detection

Detecting semantically meaningful points on objects or robot parts in images. In manipulation, keypoints define grasp points, insertion points, or object configurations. Dense object keypoints (like those from Transporter Networks) enable precise pick-and-place by detecting source and target keypoint locations. Keypoint-based state representations are compact and geometrically meaningful.
