The Un-Kidnappable Robot: Acoustic Localization of Sneaking People
Mengyu Yang, Patrick Grady, Samarth Brahmbhatt +3
How easy is it to sneak up on a robot? We examine whether we can detect people using only the incidental sounds they produce as they move, even when they try to be quiet. We collec…
Visual Contact Pressure Estimation for Grippers in the Wild
Jeremy A. Collins, Cody Houff, Patrick Grady +1
Sensing contact pressure applied by a gripper can benefit autonomous and teleoperated robotic manipulation, but adding tactile sensors to a gripper's surface can be difficult or im…
PressureVision++: Estimating Fingertip Pressure from Diverse RGB Images
Patrick Grady, Jeremy A. Collins, Chengcheng Tang +4
Touch plays a fundamental role in manipulation for humans; however, machine perception of contact and pressure typically requires invasive sensors. Recent research has shown that d…
Force/Torque Sensing for Soft Grippers using an External Camera
Jeremy A. Collins, Patrick Grady, Charles C. Kemp
Robotic manipulation can benefit from wrist-mounted force/torque (F/T) sensors, but conventional F/T sensors can be expensive, difficult to install, and damaged by high loads. We p…
Visual Pressure Estimation and Control for Soft Robotic Grippers
Patrick Grady, Jeremy A. Collins, Samarth Brahmbhatt +4
Soft robotic grippers facilitate contact-rich manipulation, including robust grasping of varied objects. Yet the beneficial compliance of a soft gripper also results in significant…
PressureVision: Estimating Hand Pressure from a Single RGB Image
Patrick Grady, Chengcheng Tang, Samarth Brahmbhatt +4
People often interact with their surroundings by applying pressure with their hands. While hand pressure can be measured by placing pressure sensors between the hand and the enviro…
