Could you build this?

No This is frontier academic robotics research (CoRL paper) involving humanoid loco-manipulation, reinforcement learning, contact mechanics, and MuJoCo simulation.

What it would actually take: The project uses physics engines (MuJoCo/Isaac Sim), reinforcement learning frameworks (PyTorch/RLlib), vision-language models, and custom trajectory-optimization algorithms for multi-contact locomotion and manipulation. Building this requires a team of PhD-level robotics and deep RL researchers, high-performance GPU compute clusters, and physical humanoid hardware for validation.
