Advancing Robotic Grasp Planning using Human Heuristics for Grasp Similarity

Creator:

Dixit, Saurabh Milind

Abstract:

This thesis explores the use of human kinesthetic input to advance robotic grasp planning. It specifically focuses on identification of human heuristics of grasp similarity by extensive human-subject experiments. This heuristic is then utilized to develop a robust metric for identifying similar robotic grasps. The central hypothesis of this work...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Saurabh Milind Dixit for the
Robotic deburring

Creator:

James, Francis

Abstract:

Deburring of machined parts is a crucial task in the aerospace and automotive industry. This process is still performed manually to a large extent due to the unpredictability of burr formation as well as the complex interactions between the human arm and the workpiece. Poor ergonomics, repetitive stress and strain...

Analyzing Human Gaze Patterns During Grasping Tasks To Advance Robotic Grasping

Creator:

Allani, Sai Krishna

Abstract:

There is a strong interest in the robotics community in learning how humans grasp and manipulate objects, partly because robots need to operate in human environments and partly because humans are currently much better in physical interaction tasks than robots. This thesis seeks to identify the human heuristics for grasping...
