Deep Sensor Fusion for Real-Time Odometry Estimation

Michelle Valente, Cyril Joly, Atnaud de La Fortelle

IROS 2019poster

Cameras and 2D laser scanners, in combination, are able to provide low-cost, light-weight and accurate solutions, which make their fusion well-suited for many robot navigation tasks. However, correct data fusion depends on precise calibration of the rigid body transform between the sensors. In this…

Making objects graspable in confined environments through push and pull manipulation with a tool

Sarah Elliott, Michelle Valente, Maya Cakmak

ICRA 2016

Grasping objects in confined environments, such as shelves, fridges, or drawers, is challenging due to the difficulty of avoiding gripper and arm collisions with the surfaces surrounding the object. In this paper we explore the use of a tool to reconfigure objects in such environments so as to make
