Summary
This study introduces a two-phase robotic grasping method for stacked objects, achieving high success rates in simulations and real-world experiments. The approach enhances robot manipulation in complex stacking scenarios.
Area of Science:
- Robotics
- Computer Vision
- Artificial Intelligence
Background:
- Dexterous grasping is crucial for robotic fine manipulation but challenging in stacking scenarios.
- Existing methods struggle with sequential grasping of stacked objects.
Purpose of the Study:
- To propose a novel two-phase approach for grasp detection in sequential robotic grasping for stacking tasks.
- To enhance the accuracy and success rate of robotic grasping in complex stacked environments.
Main Methods:
- Developed a rotated-YOLOv3 (R-YOLOv3) model for detecting top-layer objects in stacked scenarios.
- Created a stacked scenario dataset for training and testing the R-YOLOv3 network.
- Utilized a G-ResNet50 model to determine optimal grasping poses for the uppermost objects.
Main Results:
- The R-YOLOv3 model achieved an average grasping prediction success rate of 96.60% on the Cornell grasping dataset.
- In real-world experiments, the robot achieved a maximum grasping success rate of 95.00% and an average handling success rate of 83.93% in stacked scenarios.
Conclusions:
- The proposed two-phase approach effectively enables robots to perform sequential grasping in complex stacked environments.
- The methodology demonstrates high efficacy and competitiveness for robotic manipulation tasks involving stacked objects.
