Leveraging Embodied Mechanical Intelligence for Learning Decluttering Tasks

ICRA 2026poster

In this work, we investigate how a state-of-the-art grasp planner based on deep reinforcement learning performs when applied to a soft-rigid gripper in a decluttering task. The gripper, called Soft ScoopGripper, is endowed with a rigid scoop-shaped part that facilitates the interaction with the envi…

Soft Human-Robot Handover Using a Vision-Based Pipeline

RA-L 2025

Handing over objects is an essential task in human-robot collaborative scenarios. Previous studies have predominantly employed rigid grippers to perform the handover, focusing on generating grasps that avoid physical contact with people. In this paper, we present a vision-based open-palm handover so

Reducing Cognitive Load in Teleoperating Swarms of Robots through a Data-Driven Shared Control Approach

IROS 2024poster

Multi-robot systems have gained increasing interest across various fields such as medicine, environmental monitoring, and more. Despite the evident advantages, the coordination of the swarm arises significant challenges for human operators, particularly concerning the cognitive burden needed for eff…
