Camera-to-robot (also known as eye-to-hand) calibration is a critical component of vision-based robot manipulation. Traditional marker-based methods often require human intervention for system setup. Furthermore, existing autonomous markerless calibration methods typically rely on pre-trained robot
Traditional robot control relies on analytical methods that require precise system models, which are hard to apply in real-world settings and limit generalization to arbitrary tasks. However, systems like serial manipulators and passively adaptive hands feature inherently stable regions without cont
The ability to plan and control robotic in-hand manipulation is challenged by several issues, including the required amount of prior knowledge of the system and the sophisticated physics that varies across different robot hands or even grasp instances. One of the most direct models of in-hand manipu…
Calibrating robots into their workspaces is crucial for manipulation tasks. Existing calibration techniques often rely on sensors external to the robot (cameras, laser scanners, etc.) or specialized tools. This reliance complicates the calibration process and increases the costs and time requirement…
Building hand-object models for dexterous in-hand manipulation remains a crucial and open problem. Major challenges include the difficulty of obtaining the geometric and dynamical models of the hand, object, and time-varying contacts, as well as the inevitable physical and perception uncertainties.…
