Task-driven Perception and Manipulation for Constrained Placement of Unknown Objects
Chaitanya Mitash, Rahul Shome, Bowen Wen +2
Recent progress in robotic manipulation has dealt with the case of previously unknown objects in the context of relatively simple tasks, such as bin-picking. Existing methods for m…
That and There: Judging the Intent of Pointing Actions with Robotic Arms
Malihe Alikhani, Baber Khalid, Rahul Shome +3
Collaborative robotics requires effective communication between a robot and a human partner. This work proposes a set of interpretive principles for how a robotic arm can use point…
Anytime Multi-arm Task and Motion Planning for Pick-and-Place of Individual Objects via Handoffs
Rahul Shome, Kostas E. Bekris
Automation applications are pushing the deployment of many high DoF manipulators in warehouse and manufacturing environments. This has motivated many efforts on optimizing manipula…
dRRT*: Scalable and Informed Asymptotically-Optimal Multi-Robot Motion Planning
Rahul Shome, Kiril Solovey, Andrew Dobson +2
Many exciting robotic applications require multiple robots with many degrees of freedom, such as manipulators, to coordinate their motion in a shared workspace. Discovering high-qu…
Fast, High-Quality Dual-Arm Rearrangement in Synchronous, Monotone Tabletop Setups
Rahul Shome, Kiril Solovey, Jingjin Yu +2
Rearranging objects on a planar surface arises in a variety of robotic applications, such as product packaging. Using two arms can improve efficiency but introduces new computation…
Fast, Anytime Motion Planning for Prehensile Manipulation in Clutter
Andrew Kimmel, Rahul Shome, Zakary Littlefield +1
Many methods have been developed for planning the motion of robotic arms for picking and placing, ranging from local optimization to global search techniques, which are effective f…
