High-speed motions in pick-and-place operations are critical to making robots cost-effective in many automation scenarios, from warehouses and manufacturing to hospitals and homes. However, motions can be too fast -- such as when the object…

Rapid and reliable robot bin picking is a critical challenge in automating warehouses, often measured in picks-per-hour (PPH). We explore increasing PPH using faster motions based on optimizing over a set of candidate grasps. The source of…

Multi-suction-cup grippers are frequently employed to perform pick-and-place robotic tasks, especially in industrial settings where grasping a wide range of light to heavy objects in limited amounts of time is a common requirement. However,…

In logistics, the ability to quickly compute and execute pick-and-place motions from bins is critical to increasing productivity. We present Bin-Optimized Motion Planning (BOMP), a motion planning framework that plans arm motions for a…

Precise robotic grasping is important for many industrial applications, such as assembly and palletizing, where the location of the object needs to be controlled and known. However, achieving precise grasps is challenging due to noise in…

This paper proposes a combined task and motion planner for a dual-arm robot to use a suction cup tool. The planner consists of three sub-planners -- A suction pose sub-planner and two regrasp and motion sub-planners. The suction pose…

In warehouse and manufacturing environments, manipulation platforms are frequently deployed at conveyor belts to perform pick and place tasks. Because objects on the conveyor belts are moving, robots have limited time to pick them up. This…

Suction cups are an important gripper type in industrial robot applications, and prior literature focuses on using vision-based planners to improve grasping success in these tasks. Vision-based planners can fail due to adversarial objects…

Autonomous grasping of novel objects that are previously unseen to a robot is an ongoing challenge in robotic manipulation. In the last decades, many approaches have been presented to address this problem for specific robot hands. The…

Multiple-suction-cup grasping can improve the efficiency of bin picking in cluttered scenes. In this paper, we propose a grasp planner for a vacuum gripper to use multiple suction cups to simultaneously grasp multiple objects or an object…

Robotic grasping is facing a variety of real-world uncertainties caused by non-static object states, unknown object properties, and cluttered object arrangements. The difficulty of grasping increases with the presence of more uncertainties,…

Suction cups offer a useful gripping solution, particularly in industrial robotics and warehouse applications. Vision-based grasp algorithms, like Dex-Net, show promise but struggle to accurately perceive dark or reflective objects,…

Fast grasping is critical for mobile robots in logistics, manufacturing, and service applications. Existing methods face fundamental challenges in impact stabilization under high-speed motion, real-time whole-body coordination, and…

This paper introduces Chance Constrained Gaussian Process-Motion Planning (CCGP-MP), a motion planning algorithm for robotic systems under motion and state estimate uncertainties. The paper's key idea is to capture the variations in the…

Tool use often fails not because robots misidentify tools, but because grasps cannot withstand task-induced wrench. Existing vision-language manipulation systems ground tools and contact regions from language yet select grasps under…

We propose a new formulation of optimal motion planning (OMP) algorithm for robots operating in a hazardous environment, called adaptive Gaussian-process based stochastic trajectory optimization (AGP-STO). It first restarts the accelerated…

Grasping in dense clutter is a fundamental skill for autonomous robots. However, the crowdedness and occlusions in the cluttered scenario cause significant difficulties to generate valid grasp poses without collisions, which results in low…

Recently, robots have seen rapidly increasing use in homes and warehouses to declutter by collecting objects from a planar surface and placing them into a container. While current techniques grasp objects individually, Multi-Object Grasping…

An unstable grasp pose can lead to slip, thus an unstable grasp pose can be predicted by slip detection. A regrasp is required afterwards to correct the grasp pose in order to finish the task. In this work, we propose a novel regrasp…

Achieving robust grasping with dexterous hands remains challenging, especially when manipulation involves dynamic forces such as impacts, torques, and continuous resistance--situations common in real-world tool use. Existing methods largely…
