Called the Aloha Unleashed project, these two robotic Aloha 2 manipulator arms can now repair other robots in addition to autonomously performing various tasks, while also adapting to placement issues in real-time.
To achieve this, the team upgraded the arms with a low-friction rail to enable them to grasp smaller objects, added smaller RealSense cameras for a broader field of view, and a new desktop frame made from aluminum sporting a vision camera overhead. Even more impressive is the fact that the footage you see here was captured all in one shot.

We picked three of the most dexterous tasks we could think of: tying shoelaces; replacing a robot finger; hanging a shirt. And tried to see if we could train a policy to do each. All of them worked!,” said Chelsea Finn, Roboticist on the Mobile Aloha Team.
