Effects of Shape and Contact Location Uncertainty on Grasp Quality

چکیده
This paper addresses a new approach to the problem of selecting contact locations for grasping in the presence of shape and contact location uncertainty. Focusing on twodimensional planar objects and two-finger grasps for simplicity, we present a principled approach for selecting contact points by minimizing the risk of force-closure failure. The key contribution of the paper is the risk measure defined on grasp plans. The risk measure successfully distinguishes grasps that are equivalent without uncertainty, and we illustrate the properties of the measure with simulation experiments in two classes of objects.

Push-Grasp Quality Evaluation for Polygonal Parts under Pose Uncertainty using Quasi-static Simulation
We present a framework for analyzing the quality of push-grasps of extruded polygonal parts under pose uncertainty using a parallel jaw gripper. Performing a push-grasp involves using the first jaw to push the part into stable alignment, after which the second jaw closes onto the part. The motion of parts pushed on a work surface is difficult to predict if the precise interactions between the p...
متن کاملGP-GPIS-OPT: Grasp Planning Under Shape Uncertainty Using Gaussian Process Implicit Surfaces and Sequential Convex Programming
Computing grasps for an object is challenging when the object geometry is not known precisely; especially for objects that are difficult for robots to perceive, such as those with specular or transparent surfaces. These properties introduce uncertainty in object geometry, but commonly used polygonal mesh-based models cannot easily be extended to represent this uncertainty. In this paper, we exp...
متن کاملFitting the Three-parameter Weibull Distribution by using Greedy Randomized Adaptive Search Procedure
The Weibull distribution is widely employed in several areas of engineering because it is an extremely flexible distribution with different shapes. Moreover, it can include characteristics of several other distributions. However, successful usage of Weibull distribution depends on estimation accuracy for three parameters of scale, shape and location. This issue shifts the attentions to the requ...
متن کاملThe Effects of Grasp Conditions on Maximal Acceptable Combined Forces (pushing and pinch forces) for Manual Insertion of Snap Fasteners
The objective of this study was to determine the effects of grasp conditions (types of grasp, grasp width, glove and types of coupling) on maximal pushing force (MPF) and required pinch force (RPF) during snap fit assembly. The results indicated that the type of grasp, the type of coupling and wearing gloves have significant (p
متن کاملGrasping Objects with Environmentally Induced Position Uncertainty
Due to noisy motor commands and imprecise and ambiguous sensory information, there is often substantial uncertainty about the relative location between our body and objects in the environment. Little is known about how well people manage and compensate for this uncertainty in purposive movement tasks like grasping. Grasping objects requires reach trajectories to generate object-fingers contacts...
