Learning Bayes Filter Models for Tactile Localization
Tarik Kelestemur, Colin Keil, John P. Whitney +2
Localizing and tracking the pose of robotic grippers are necessary skills for manipulation tasks. However, the manipulators with imprecise kinematic models (e.g. low-cost arms) or…
Model-Based Manipulation of Linear Flexible Objects with Visual Curvature Feedback
Peng Chang, Taskin Padir
Manipulation of deformable objects is a desired skill in making robots ubiquitous in manufacturing, service, healthcare, and security. Deformable objects are common in our daily li…
Tuning-Free Contact-Implicit Trajectory Optimization
Aykut Ozgun Onol, Radu Corcodel, Philip Long +1
We present a contact-implicit trajectory optimization framework that can plan contact-interaction trajectories for different robot architectures and tasks using a trivial initial g…
Sim2Real2Sim: Bridging the Gap Between Simulation and Real-World in Flexible Object Manipulation
Peng Chang, Taskin Padir
This paper addresses a new strategy called Simulation-to-Real-to-Simulation (Sim2Real2Sim) to bridge the gap between simulation and real-world, and automate a flexible object manip…
A 3D Reactive Navigation Algorithm for Mobile Robots by Using Tentacle-Based Sampling
Neşet Ünver Akmandor, Taşkın Padır
This paper introduces a reactive navigation framework for mobile robots in 3-dimensional (3D) space. The proposed approach does not rely on the global map information and achieves…
