We present Kalman-Filter Assisted Reinforcement Learner (KARL) for dynamic object tracking and grasping over eye-on-hand (EoH) systems, significantly expanding such systems’ capabilities in challenging, realistic environments. In comparison to the previous state-of-the-art, KARL (1) incorporates a n
Solving storage problems—where objects must be accurately placed into containers with precise orientations and positions—presents a distinct challenge that extends beyond traditional rearrangement tasks. These challenges are primarily due to the need for fine-grained 6D manipulation and the inherent…
We present LGMCTS, a framework that uniquely combines language guidance with geometrically informed sampling distributions to effectively rearrange objects according to geometric patterns dictated by natural language descriptions. LGMCTS uses Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) to create feasible action
We present an Open-Vocabulary 3D Scene Graph (OVSG), a formal framework for grounding a variety of entities, such as object instances, agents, and regions, with free-form text-based queries. Unlike conventional semantic-based object localization approaches, our system facilitates context-aware entit…
