Contact-Aware Neural Dynamics
Changwei Jing, Jai Krishna Bandi, Jianglong Ye +4
High-fidelity physics simulation is essential for scalable robotic learning, but the sim-to-real gap persists, especially for tasks involving complex, dynamic, and discontinuous in…
Learning to Design Soft Hands using Reward Models
Xueqian Bai, Nicklas Hansen, Adabhav Singh +5
Soft robotic hands promise to provide compliant and safe interaction with objects and environments. However, designing soft hands to be both compliant and functional across diverse…
Object Pose Estimation through Dexterous Touch
Amir-Hossein Shahidzadeh, Jiyue Zhu, Kezhou Chen +4
Robust object pose estimation is essential for manipulation and interaction tasks in robotics, particularly in scenarios where visual data is limited or sensitive to lighting, occl…
Co-Design of Soft Gripper with Neural Physics
Sha Yi, Xueqian Bai, Adabhav Singh +3
For robot manipulation, both the controller and end-effector design are crucial. Soft grippers are generalizable by deforming to different geometries, but designing such a gripper…
