Online evaluation is increasingly adopted in robotics research, providing an efficient approach to collect data from large and diverse populations. However, there have been ongoing debates about online studies as a proxy for in-person studies, especially where a participant passively observes video
Occlusions caused by a robot’s own body is a common problem for closed-loop control methods employed in eye-to-hand camera setups. We propose an optimization-based reactive controller that minimizes self-occlusions while achieving a desired goal pose. The approach allows coordinated control between
We study the problem of placing a grasped object on an empty flat surface in an upright orientation, such as placing a cup on its bottom rather than on its side. We aim to find the required object rotation such that when the gripper is opened after the object makes contact with the surface, the obje
