PAPRLE (Plug-And-Play Robotic Limb Environment): A Modular Ecosystem for Robotic Limbs
Obin Kwon, Sankalp Yamsani, Noboru Myers +5
We introduce PAPRLE (Plug-And-Play Robotic Limb Environment), a modular ecosystem that enables flexible placement and control of robotic limbs. With PAPRLE, a user can change the a…
A Careful Examination of Large Behavior Models for Multitask Dexterous Manipulation
TRI LBM Team, Jose Barreiros, Andrew Beaulieu +79
Robot manipulation has seen tremendous progress in recent years, with imitation learning policies enabling successful performance of dexterous and hard-to-model tasks. Concurrently…
SEED: Series Elastic End Effectors in 6D for Visuotactile Tool Use
H. J. Terry Suh, Naveen Kuppuswamy, Tao Pang +3
We propose the framework of Series Elastic End Effectors in 6D (SEED), which combines a spatially compliant element with visuotactile sensing to grasp and manipulate tools in the w…
Punyo-1: Soft tactile-sensing upper-body robot for large object manipulation and physical human interaction
Aimee Goncalves, Naveen Kuppuswamy, Andrew Beaulieu +3
The manipulation of large objects and safe operation in the vicinity of humans are key capabilities of a general purpose domestic robotic assistant. We present the design of a soft…
Variable compliance and geometry regulation of Soft-Bubble grippers with active pressure control
Sihah Joonhigh, Naveen Kuppuswamy, Andrew Beaulieu +2
While compliant grippers have become increasingly commonplace in robot manipulation, finding the right stiffness and geometry for grasping the widest variety of objects remains a k…
Monocular Depth Estimation for Soft Visuotactile Sensors
Rares Ambrus, Vitor Guizilini, Naveen Kuppuswamy +3
Fluid-filled soft visuotactile sensors such as the Soft-bubbles alleviate key challenges for robust manipulation, as they enable reliable grasps along with the ability to obtain hi…
