AdaptPNP: Integrating Prehensile and Non-Prehensile Skills for Adaptive Robotic Manipulation

ICRA 2026poster

Non-prehensile (NP) manipulation, in which robots alter object states without forming stable grasps (for example, pushing, poking, or sliding), significantly broadens robotic manipulation capabilities when grasping is infeasible or insufficient. However, enabling a unified framework that generalizes…

ShapeForce: Low-Cost Soft Robotic Wrist for Contact-Rich Manipulation

ICRA 2026poster

Contact feedback is essential for contact-rich robotic manipulation, as it allows the robot to detect subtle interaction changes and adjust its actions accordingly. Six- axis force-torque sensors are commonly used to obtain contact feedback, but their high cost and fragility have discouraged many re…
