Dual-arm Assembly Planning Considering Gravitational Constraints
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
It automatically generates the grasp configurations and assembly poses, and simultaneously searches and backtracks the grasp space and assembly space to accelerate the motion planning of robot arms. ...
The assembly planner shall consider not only the pose constraints of objects and robots, but also the gravitational constraints that may break the finished part. ...
By using this method, we can automatically compute a lot of candidate grasps using the CAD model of an object. Fig.3 shows some grasp configurations synthesized by the method. ...

Agimus: a new framework for mapping manipulation motion plans to sequences of hierarchical task-based controllers
2020
2020 IEEE/SICE International Symposium on System Integration (SII)
The novelty of the method is not only to produce a configuration space trajectory but also automatically formulate the controllers that perform the tasks while keeping balance on a humanoid robot. ...
We demonstrate this approach fully integrated on a real Talos humanoid robot while using controllers formulated as a sequence of hierarchical Stack-of-Tasks. ...
It is challenging since it involves constraints on the configurations of the robot and the objects: when an object is grasped, possibly by several grippers, its configuration depends on the configuration ...
