Accurately recognizing the structural regions of targeted objects is crucial for successful manipulation. In this study, we concentrate on the task of hanging crumpled garments on a rack, a common scenario in household environments. This context presents two primary challenges: (1) perceiving and gr
This letter addresses the problem of contact-based manipulation of deformable linear objects (DLOs) towards desired shapes with a dual-arm robotic system. To alleviate the burden of high-dimensional continuous state-action spaces, we model DLOs as kinematic multibody systems via our proposed keypoin
In this paper, we present a robotic system to automatically perform defect inspection tasks over free-form specular surfaces, which the image acquisition sub-system is equipped with a 6-DOF robot manipulator to achieve flexible scanning. Given the mesh model of the workpiece, we implement K-means ba…
Soft object manipulation has recently gained popularity within the robotics community due to its potential applications in many economically important areas. Although great progress has been recently achieved in these types of tasks, most state-of-the-art methods are case-specific; They can only be
