FogROS G: Enabling Secure, Connected and Mobile Fog Robotics with Global Addressability
Kaiyuan Chen, Jiachen Yuan, Nikhil Jha +3
Fog Robotics renders networked robots with greater mobility, on-demand compute capabilities and better energy efficiency by offloading heavy robotics workloads to nearby Edge and d…
Monte Carlo Augmented Actor-Critic for Sparse Reward Deep Reinforcement Learning from Suboptimal Demonstrations
Albert Wilcox, Ashwin Balakrishna, Jules Dedieu +3
Providing densely shaped reward functions for RL algorithms is often exceedingly challenging, motivating the development of RL algorithms that can learn from easier-to-specify spar…
SGTM 2.0: Autonomously Untangling Long Cables using Interactive Perception
Kaushik Shivakumar, Vainavi Viswanath, Anrui Gu +6
Cables are commonplace in homes, hospitals, and industrial warehouses and are prone to tangling. This paper extends prior work on autonomously untangling long cables by introducing…
SpeedFolding: Learning Efficient Bimanual Folding of Garments
Yahav Avigal, Lars Berscheid, Tamim Asfour +2
Folding garments reliably and efficiently is a long standing challenge in robotic manipulation due to the complex dynamics and high dimensional configuration space of garments. An…
The Sky Above The Clouds
Sarah Chasins, Alvin Cheung, Natacha Crooks +14
Technology ecosystems often undergo significant transformations as they mature. For example, telephony, the Internet, and PCs all started with a single provider, but in the United…
Learning to Fold Real Garments with One Arm: A Case Study in Cloud-Based Robotics Research
Ryan Hoque, Kaushik Shivakumar, Shrey Aeron +7
Autonomous fabric manipulation is a longstanding challenge in robotics, but evaluating progress is difficult due to the cost and diversity of robot hardware. Using Reach, a cloud r…
