Morphometric Imitation: From Morphology and Contact Aware Hand Retargeting to Sim-to-Real Visuomotor Policy
Tara Sadjadpour, Siming He, C. K. Wolfe +5
Human hand-object interactions (HOIs) provide a rich source of demonstrations for dexterous manipulation, but learning directly from them presents challenges in bridging morphology…
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,…
STITCH: Augmented Dexterity for Suture Throws Including Thread Coordination and Handoffs
Kush Hari, Hansoul Kim, Will Panitch +6
We present STITCH: an augmented dexterity pipeline that performs Suture Throws Including Thread Coordination and Handoffs. STITCH iteratively performs needle insertion, thread swee…
ShaSTA: Modeling Shape and Spatio-Temporal Affinities for 3D Multi-Object Tracking
Tara Sadjadpour, Jie Li, Rares Ambrus +1
Multi-object tracking is a cornerstone capability of any robotic system. The quality of tracking is largely dependent on the quality of the detector used. In many applications, suc…
