Botany-Bot: Digital Twin Monitoring of Occluded and Underleaf Plant Structures with Gaussian Splats
Simeon Adebola, Chung Min Kim, Justin Kerr +5
Commercial plant phenotyping systems using fixed cameras cannot perceive many plant details due to leaf occlusion. In this paper, we present Botany-Bot, a system for building detai…
GrowSplat: Constructing Temporal Digital Twins of Plants with Gaussian Splats
Simeon Adebola, Shuangyu Xie, Chung Min Kim +9
Accurate temporal reconstructions of plant growth are essential for plant phenotyping and breeding, yet remain challenging due to complex geometries, occlusions, and non-rigid defo…
Persistent Object Gaussian Splat (POGS) for Tracking Human and Robot Manipulation of Irregularly Shaped Objects
Justin Yu, Kush Hari, Karim El-Refai +6
Tracking and manipulating irregularly-shaped, previously unseen objects in dynamic environments is important for robotic applications in manufacturing, assembly, and logistics. Rec…
Robot See Robot Do: Imitating Articulated Object Manipulation with Monocular 4D Reconstruction
Justin Kerr, Chung Min Kim, Mingxuan Wu +4
Humans can learn to manipulate new objects by simply watching others; providing robots with the ability to learn from such demonstrations would enable a natural interface specifyin…
Language-Embedded Gaussian Splats (LEGS): Incrementally Building Room-Scale Representations with a Mobile Robot
Justin Yu, Kush Hari, Kishore Srinivas +9
Building semantic 3D maps is valuable for searching for objects of interest in offices, warehouses, stores, and homes. We present a mapping system that incrementally builds a Langu…
Lifelong LERF: Local 3D Semantic Inventory Monitoring Using FogROS2
Adam Rashid, Chung Min Kim, Justin Kerr +11
Inventory monitoring in homes, factories, and retail stores relies on maintaining data despite objects being swapped, added, removed, or moved. We introduce Lifelong LERF, a method…
Language Embedded Radiance Fields for Zero-Shot Task-Oriented Grasping
Adam Rashid, Satvik Sharma, Chung Min Kim +4
Grasping objects by a specific part is often crucial for safety and for executing downstream tasks. Yet, learning-based grasp planners lack this behavior unless they are trained on…
Mechanical Search on Shelves with Efficient Stacking and Destacking of Objects
Huang Huang, Letian Fu, Michael Danielczuk +6
Stacking increases storage efficiency in shelves, but the lack of visibility and accessibility makes the mechanical search problem of revealing and extracting target objects diffic…
Mechanical Search on Shelves using a Novel "Bluction" Tool
Huang Huang, Michael Danielczuk, Chung Min Kim +6
Shelves are common in homes, warehouses, and commercial settings due to their storage efficiency. However, this efficiency comes at the cost of reduced visibility and accessibility…
IPC-GraspSim: Reducing the Sim2Real Gap for Parallel-Jaw Grasping with the Incremental Potential Contact Model
Chung Min Kim, Michael Danielczuk, Isabella Huang +1
Accurately simulating whether an object will be lifted securely or dropped during grasping is a longstanding Sim2Real challenge. Soft compliant jaw tips are almost universally used…
