The inherent difficulty and limited scalability of collecting manipulation data using multi-fingered robot hand hardware platforms have resulted in severe data scarcity, impeding research on data-driven dexterous manipulation policy learning. To address this challenge, we present a hand-agnostic man
Humans achieve contact-rich dexterous grasping through the synergy of visual and tactile information. However, the high-dimensional action space of high DoF multi-fingered hands poses significant challenges to this operation. In this study, we address this complexity by controlling the robotic hand…
Generating grasps for a dexterous hand often requires numerous grasping annotations. However, annotating high DoF dexterous hand poses is quite challenging. Especially for functional grasps, requiring the hand to grasp the object in a specific pose to facilitate subsequent manipulations. This prompt
Robot grasp dataset is the basis of designing the robot's grasp generation model. Compared with the building grasp dataset for Low-DOF grippers, it is harder for High-DOF dexterous robot hand. Most current datasets meet the needs of generating stable grasps, but they are not suitable for dexterous h…
Successful grasp is an important and long-standing issue for robots to interact with the real world. Most recent studies have devoted more attention to stable grasp rather than functional grasp, which cannot guarantee task-oriented postgrasp manipulation. To achieve human-like functional grasp, a se
In recent years, many dexterous robotic hands have been designed to assist or replace human hands in executing various tasks. But how to teach them to perform dexterous operations like human hands is still a challenging task. In this paper, we propose a grasp synthesis framework to make robots grasp…
This paper focuses on the topic of vision based hand pose estimation from single depth map using convolutional neural network (CNN). Our main contributions lie in designing a new pose regression network architecture named CrossInfoNet. The proposed CrossInfoNet decomposes hand pose estimation task i…
The goal of this paper is to estimate the 3D coordinates of the hand joints from a single depth image. To give consideration to both the accuracy and the real time performance, we design a novel three-branch Convolutional Neural Networks named Hand Branch Ensemble network (HBE), where the three bran…
