GRASP GENERATION USING A VARIATIONAL AUTOENCODER

Abstract:

In at least one embodiment, a system determines a set of possible grasp poses that allow a robot to successfully grasp an object by generating a set of potential grasp poses, and then evaluating the performance of each potential grasp pose. In at least one embodiment, the system performs a refinement operation on the grasp poses, and based on an evaluation of the poses, creates an improved set of possible grasps for the object.
