低成本力控夹爪+实时触觉反馈,让机器人像人一样轻拿易碎物。

Learning Force-Regulated Manipulation with a Low-Cost Tactile-Force-Controlled Gripper

  • 用触觉与高频率反馈解耦力控与位姿控制,实现快速力调节
  • 在5个真实任务中,力控比位置控制提升抓取稳定性和成功率
  • 夹爪成本仅150美元,适配多种机械臂,适合教学与研究

精确调节抓取力对操作薯片等日常易损物品至关重要。现有商用夹爪成本高或最小受力过大,难以用于学习力控策略。本文提出TF-Gripper,一种低成本(约150美元)的平行双颚力控夹爪,集成触觉传感,有效力范围为0.45–45N,兼容多种机械臂。配套设计了遥操作设备,采集人类施加的抓握力数据。标准低频策略在该数据上训练后仍难以应对接触相关的动态力调节需求。为此,提出RETAf(REactive Tactile Adaptation of Force)框架:通过腕部图像和触觉反馈以高频调控力,基线策略则预测末端姿态与开合动作。在五个需精细力调节的真实任务中验证,相比位置控制,直接力控显著提升抓取稳定性与任务成功率;触觉反馈对力调节不可或缺,且RETAf始终优于基线,可与多种基线策略兼容。本工作为扩展机器人力控策略学习提供新路径。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Successfully manipulating many everyday objects, such as potato chips, requires precise force regulation. Failure to modulate force can lead to task failure or irreversible damage to the objects. Humans can precisely achieve this by adapting force from tactile feedback, even within a short period of physical contact. We aim to give robots this capability. However, commercial grippers exhibit high cost or high minimum force, making them unsuitable for studying force-controlled policy learning with everyday force-sensitive objects. We introduce TF-Gripper, a low-cost (~$150) force-controlled parallel-jaw gripper that integrates tactile sensing as feedback. It has an effective force range of 0.45-45N and is compatible with different robot arms. Additionally, we designed a teleoperation device paired with TF-Gripper to record human-applied grasping forces. While standard low-frequency policies can be trained on this data, they struggle with the reactive, contact-dependent nature of force regulation. To overcome this, we propose RETAF (REactive Tactile Adaptation of Force), a framework that decouples grasping force control from arm pose prediction. RETAF regulates force at high frequency using wrist images and tactile feedback, while a base policy predicts end-effector pose and gripper open/close action. We evaluate TF-Gripper and RETAF across five real-world tasks requiring precise force regulation. Results show that compared to position control, direct force control significantly improves grasp stability and task performance. We further show that tactile feedback is essential for force regulation, and that RETAF consistently outperforms baselines and can be integrated with various base policies. We hope this work opens a path for scaling the learning of force-controlled policies in robotic manipulation. Project page: https://force-gripper.github.io .
