Tactile Object Pose Estimation from the First Touch with Geometric Contact Rendering
Maria Bauza, Eric Valls, Bryan Lim +2
In this paper, we present an approach to tactile pose estimation from the first touch for known objects. First, we create an object-agnostic map from real tactile observations to c…
Tactile SLAM: Real-time inference of shape and pose from planar pushing
Sudharshan Suresh, Maria Bauza, Kuan-Ting Yu +3
Tactile perception is central to robot manipulation in unstructured environments. However, it requires contact, and a mature implementation must infer object models while also acco…
Experience-Embedded Visual Foresight
Lin Yen-Chen, Maria Bauza, Phillip Isola
Visual foresight gives an agent a window into the future, which it can use to anticipate events before they happen and plan strategic behavior. Although impressive results have bee…
Accurate Vision-based Manipulation through Contact Reasoning
Alina Kloss, Maria Bauza, Jiajun Wu +3
Planning contact interactions is one of the core challenges of many robotic tasks. Optimizing contact locations while taking dynamics into account is computationally costly and, in…
Combining Physical Simulators and Object-Based Networks for Control
Anurag Ajay, Maria Bauza, Jiajun Wu +4
Physics engines play an important role in robot planning and control; however, many real-world control problems involve complex contact dynamics that cannot be characterized analyt…
Tactile Mapping and Localization from High-Resolution Tactile Imprints
Maria Bauza, Oleguer Canal, Alberto Rodriguez
This work studies the problem of shape reconstruction and object localization using a vision-based tactile sensor, GelSlim. The main contributions are the recovery of local shapes…
