Active Clothing Material Perception using Tactile Sensing and Deep Learning
Wenzhen Yuan, Yuchen Mo, Shaoxiong Wang +1
Humans represent and discriminate the objects in the same category using their properties, and an intelligent robot should be able to do the same. In this paper, we build a robot s…
The Feeling of Success: Does Touch Sensing Help Predict Grasp Outcomes?
Roberto Calandra, Andrew Owens, Manu Upadhyaya +4
A successful grasp requires careful balancing of the contact forces. Deducing whether a particular grasp will be successful from indirect measurements, such as vision, is therefore…
Improved GelSight Tactile Sensor for Measuring Geometry and Slip
Siyuan Dong, Wenzhen Yuan, Edward Adelson
A GelSight sensor uses an elastomeric slab covered with a reflective membrane to measure tactile signals. It measures the 3D geometry and contact force information with high spacia…
Shape-independent Hardness Estimation Using Deep Learning and a GelSight Tactile Sensor
Wenzhen Yuan, Chenzhuo Zhu, Andrew Owens +2
Hardness is among the most important attributes of an object that humans learn about through touch. However, approaches for robots to estimate hardness are limited, due to the lack…
