  Reusing large datasets is crucial to scale vision-based robotic manipulators
to everyday scenarios due to the high cost of collecting robotic datasets.
However, robotic platforms possess varying control schemes, camera viewpoints,
kinematic configurations, and end-effector morphologies, posing significant
challenges when transferring manipulation skills from one platform to another.
To tackle this problem, we propose a set of key design decisions to train a
single policy for deployment on multiple robotic platforms. Our framework first
aligns the observation and action spaces of our policy across embodiments via
utilizing wrist cameras and a unified, but modular codebase. To bridge the
remaining domain shift, we align our policy's internal representations across
embodiments through contrastive learning. We evaluate our method on a dataset
collected over 60 hours spanning 6 tasks and 3 robots with varying joint
configurations and sizes: the WidowX 250S, the Franka Emika Panda, and the
Sawyer. Our results demonstrate significant improvements in success rate and
sample efficiency for our policy when using new task data collected on a
different robot, validating our proposed design decisions. More details and
