Robotic grasping is a primitive skill for complex tasks and is fundamental to intelligence. For general 6-Dof grasping, most previous methods directly extract scene-level semantic or geometric information, while few of them consider the…
This paper addresses the problem of mobile grasping in dynamic, unknown environments where a robot must operate under a limited field-of-view. The fundamental challenge is the inherent trade-off between ``seeing'' around to reduce…
A human hand can grasp a desired number of objects at once from a pile based solely on tactile sensing. To do so, a robot needs to grasp within a pile, sense the number of objects in the grasp before lifting, and predict the number of…
Food packing industries typically use seasonal ingredients with immense variety that factory workers manually pack. For small pieces of food picked by volume or weight that tend to get entangled, stick or clump together, it is difficult to…
Grasping in cluttered scenes has always been a great challenge for robots, due to the requirement of the ability to well understand the scene and object information. Previous works usually assume that the geometry information of the objects…
6-DoF grasp detection has been a fundamental and challenging problem in robotic vision. While previous works have focused on ensuring grasp stability, they often do not consider human intention conveyed through natural language, hindering…
General object grasping is an important yet unsolved problem in the field of robotics. Most of the current methods either generate grasp poses with few DoF that fail to cover most of the success grasps, or only take the unstable depth image…
