The inherent uncertainty associated with unstructured environments makes establishing a successful grasp difficult. Traditional approaches to this problem involve hands that are c...
— This paper addresses the problem of selecting contact locations for grasping objects in the presence of shape and contact location uncertainty. Focusing on two-dimensional plan...
We present a self-valuing learning technique which is capable of learning how to grasp unfamiliar objects and generalize the learned abilities. The learning system consists of two...
Robotic simulation systems allow researchers, engineers, and students to test control algorithms in a safe environment, but until recently these systems only simulated the dynamic...
— This paper presents an integrative approach to solve the coupled problem of reaching and grasping an object in a cluttered environment with a humanoid robot. While finding an ...
