Predicting fruit-pick success using a grasp classifier trained on a physical proxy

IROS 2022poster

Apple picking is a challenging manipulation task, but it is difficult to test solutions due to the limited window of time that apples are in season. Previous methods have built simulations of apple trees, but simulations rarely capture soft contact and deformation well, both of which are common in f…

Towards Intelligent Fruit Picking with In-hand Sensing

IROS 2021poster

Studies have shown that picking techniques play an important role in determining fruit quality at harvest (e.g. bruising, stem retention, etc). When picking fruit such as apples and pears, professional pickers use active perception, incorporating both visual and tactile input about fruit orientation…
