Improving grasp performance using in-hand proximity and contact sensing
Radhen Patel, Rebecca Cox, Branden Romero +1
We describe the grasping and manipulation strategy that we employed at the autonomous track of the Robotic Grasping and Manipulation Competition at IROS 2016. A salient feature of…
Sparser Sparse Roadmaps
David Coleman, Nikolaus Correll
We present methods for offline generation of sparse roadmap spanners that result in graphs 79% smaller than existing approaches while returning solutions of equivalent path quality…
Simultaneous Localization, Mapping, and Manipulation for Unsupervised Object Discovery
Lu Ma, Mahsa Ghafarianzadeh, Dave Coleman +2
We present an unsupervised framework for simultaneous appearance-based object discovery, detection, tracking and reconstruction using RGBD cameras and a robot manipulator. The syst…
Experience-Based Planning with Sparse Roadmap Spanners
David Coleman, Ioan A. Sucan, Mark Moll +2
We present an experienced-based planning framework called Thunder that learns to reduce computation time required to solve high-dimensional planning problems in varying environment…
Reducing the Barrier to Entry of Complex Robotic Software: a MoveIt! Case Study
David Coleman, Ioan Sucan, Sachin Chitta +1
Developing robot agnostic software frameworks involves synthesizing the disparate fields of robotic theory and software engineering while simultaneously accounting for a large vari…
Organizing the Aggregate: Languages for Spatial Computing
Jacob Beal, Stefan Dulman, Kyle Usbeck +2
As the number of computing devices embedded into engineered systems continues to rise, there is a widening gap between the needs of the user to control aggregates of devices and th…
