Embodiment Gap

The performance degradation when transferring policies between robots with different morphologies, kinematics, or action spaces. Policies trained on ALOHA may not transfer to Franka because joint configurations, DOF, and sensor suites differ. Bridging the embodiment gap requires: embodiment-agnostic representations, action space normalization, and cross-embodiment co-training.
