Gripping Parts at Concave Vertices
ct A simple gripper with two vertical cylindrical jaws can make contact with external or internal concavities in polygonal and polyhedral parts to align and grip parts in form clos...

Blades: a New Class of Geometric Primitives for Feeding 3D Parts on Vibratory Tracks
Abstract— The vibratory bowl feeder remains the most common approach to the automated feeding (orienting) of industrial parts. We study the algorithmic design of devices on the b...

Gripper point contacts for part alignment
-- The initial resting pose of many industrial parts differs from the orientation desired for assembly. We show that it is possible to align parts during grasping using a standard ...

Polygonizing extremal surfaces with manifold guarantees
Extremal surfaces are a class of implicit surfaces that have been found useful in a variety of geometry reconstruction applications. Compared to iso-surfaces, extremal surfaces ar...
