RoboVista: Evaluating Vision Language Models for Diverse Robot Applications
Shuangyu Xie, Kaiyuan Chen, Ziyang Chen +8
Diverse applications for robotics, such as industry and agriculture, require robots to operate across various embodiments, changing visual conditions, and complex planning. Vision-…
Omni-Scan: Creating Visually-Accurate Digital Twin Object Models Using a Bimanual Robot with Handover and Gaussian Splat Merging
Tianshuang Qiu, Zehan Ma, Karim El-Refai +4
3D Gaussian Splats (3DGSs) are 3D object models derived from multi-view images. Such "digital twins" are useful for simulations, virtual reality, marketing, robot policy fine-tunin…
Breathless: An 8-hour Performance Contrasting Human and Robot Expressiveness
Catie Cuan, Tianshuang Qiu, Shreya Ganti +1
This paper describes the robot technology behind an original performance that pairs a human dancer (Cuan) with an industrial robot arm for an eight-hour dance that unfolds over the…
BOMP: Bin-Optimized Motion Planning
Zachary Tam, Karthik Dharmarajan, Tianshuang Qiu +3
In logistics, the ability to quickly compute and execute pick-and-place motions from bins is critical to increasing productivity. We present Bin-Optimized Motion Planning (BOMP), a…
FogROS2-PLR: Probabilistic Latency-Reliability For Cloud Robotics
Kaiyuan Chen, Nan Tian, Christian Juette +4
Cloud robotics enables robots to offload computationally intensive tasks to cloud servers for performance, cost, and ease of management. However, the network and cloud computing in…
Blox-Net: Generative Design-for-Robot-Assembly Using VLM Supervision, Physics Simulation, and a Robot with Reset
Andrew Goldberg, Kavish Kondap, Tianshuang Qiu +7
Generative AI systems have shown impressive capabilities in creating text, code, and images. Inspired by the rich history of research in industrial ''Design for Assembly'', we intr…
Automating Deformable Gasket Assembly
Simeon Adebola, Tara Sadjadpour, Karim El-Refai +8
In Gasket Assembly, a deformable gasket must be aligned and pressed into a narrow channel. This task is common for sealing surfaces in the manufacturing of automobiles, appliances,…
The Teenager's Problem: Efficient Garment Decluttering as Probabilistic Set Cover
Aviv Adler, Ayah Ahmad, Yulei Qiu +9
This paper addresses the "Teenager's Problem": efficiently removing scattered garments from a planar surface into a basket. As grasping and transporting individual garments is high…
Learning to Efficiently Plan Robust Frictional Multi-Object Grasps
Wisdom C. Agboh, Satvik Sharma, Kishore Srinivas +7
We consider a decluttering problem where multiple rigid convex polygonal objects rest in randomly placed positions and orientations on a planar surface and must be efficiently tran…
