Learning In-Hand Object Reaching to General 6D Poses
Junxiao Lin, Tianyue Wu, Jie Yin +3
In-hand manipulation allows multi-fingered dexterous hands to reconfigure grasped objects without releasing and regrasping them. This improves manipulation efficiency by reducing r…
One-DoF Robotic Design of Overconstrained Limbs with Energy-Efficient, Self-Collision-Free Motion
Yuping Gu, Bangchao Huang, Haoran Sun +6
While it is expected to build robotic limbs with multiple degrees of freedom (DoF) inspired by nature, a single DoF design remains fundamental, providing benefits that include, but…
A Dataset and Benchmark for Robotic Cloth Unfolding Grasp Selection: The ICRA 2024 Cloth Competition
Victor-Louis De Gusseme, Thomas Lips, Remko Proesmans +59
Robotic cloth manipulation suffers from a lack of standardized benchmarks and shared datasets for evaluating and comparing different approaches. To address this, we created a bench…
One Fling to Goal: Environment-aware Dynamics for Goal-conditioned Fabric Flinging
Linhan Yang, Lei Yang, Haoran Sun +5
Fabric manipulation dynamically is commonly seen in manufacturing and domestic settings. While dynamically manipulating a fabric piece to reach a target state is highly efficient,…
Overconstrained Locomotion
Haoran Sun, Bangchao Huang, Zishang Zhang +11
This paper studies the design, control, and learning of a novel robotic limb that produces overconstrained locomotion by employing the Bennett linkage for motion generation, capabl…
