Grasping unknown objects has been an active research topic for decades. Approaches range from using various sensors (e.g. vision, tactile) to gain information about the object, to building passively compliant hands that react appropriately…
We propose a novel ultrasonic sensor structure composed of Cantilever arm structure slot dual-micro-ring resonators(DMRR).We present a theoretical analysis of transmission by using the coupled mode theory.The mode field distributions and…
Performing simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) in low-visibility conditions, such as environments filled with smoke, dust and transparent objets, has long been a challenging task. Sensors like cameras and Light Detection and…
Developing artificial tactile sensing capabilities that rival human touch is a long-term goal in robotics and prosthetics. Gradually more elaborate biomimetic tactile sensors are being developed and applied to grasping and manipulation…
Despite significant advances in touch and force transduction, tactile sensing is still far from ubiquitous in robotic manipulation. Existing methods for building touch sensors have proven difficult to integrate into robot fingers due to…
Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) has been richly researched in past years particularly with regard to range-based or visual-based sensors. Instead of deploying dedicated devices that use visual features, it is more pragmatic to…
This work presents an approach for modelling and tracking previously unseen objects for robotic grasping tasks. Using the motion of objects in a scene, our approach segments rigid entities from the scene and continuously tracks them to…
As more robots are implemented for contact-rich tasks, tactile sensors are in increasing demand. For many circumstances, the contact is required to be compliant, and soft sensors are in need. This paper introduces a novelly designed soft…
Recently simulation methods have been developed for optical tactile sensors to enable the Sim2Real learning, i.e., firstly training models in simulation before deploying them on the real robot. However, some artefacts in the real objects…

We consider the problem of robotic grasping using depth + RGB information sampling from a real sensor. we design an encoder-decoder neural network to predict grasp policy in real time. This method can fuse the advantage of depth image and…
Proximity sensing detects an object's presence without contact. However, research has rarely explored proximity sensing in granular materials (GM) due to GM's lack of visual and complex properties. In this paper, we propose a…
Dexterous robotic manipulation requires more than geometrically valid grasps: it demands physically grounded contact strategies that account for the spatially non-uniform mechanical properties of the object. However, existing grasp planners…
The raise of collaborative robotics has led to wide range of sensor technologies to detect human-machine interactions: at short distances, proximity sensors detect nontactile gestures virtually occlusion-free, while at medium distances,…
This paper presents a spectral correlation-based method (SpectGRASP) for robotic grasping of arbitrarily shaped, unknown objects. Given a point cloud of an object, SpectGRASP extracts contact points on the object's surface matching the hand…
Aerial manipulation requires force-aware capabilities to enable safe and effective grasping and physical interaction. Previous works often rely on heavy, expensive force sensors unsuitable for typical quadrotor platforms, or perform…
To determine the 3D orientation and 3D location of objects in the surroundings of a camera mounted on a robot or mobile device, we developed two powerful algorithms in object detection and temporal tracking that are combined seamlessly for…
Device-to-device (D2D) communications in cellular networks are promising technologies for improving network throughput, spectrum efficiency, and transmission delay. In this paper, we first introduce the concept of guard distance to explore…
Robot skill acquisition processes driven by reinforcement learning often rely on simulations to efficiently generate large-scale interaction data. However, the absence of simulation models for tactile sensors has hindered the use of tactile…
Advanced dexterous manipulation involving multiple simultaneous contacts across different surfaces, like pinching coins from ground or manipulating intertwined objects, remains challenging for robotic systems. Such tasks exceed the…
