提出模块化框架,同时解决物体位姿与抓取误差问题。
Towards a Modular Bin-picking Framework for Handling Object Pose Uncertainties

- 分模块设计,融合多视角位姿分布以降低不确定性
- 实测三类物体均提升系统效率,无失败案例
- 适合需灵活应对复杂抓取场景的工业机器人系统
近年来,针对精确料箱抓取任务的鲁棒机器人系统受到广泛关注。为实现可靠性能,系统必须同时应对物体位姿估计和抓取过程中的误差。尽管已有多种方法被提出,但大多针对特定挑战,缺乏通用性。本文提出一种模块化框架,联合处理两类误差。该框架引入物体位姿分布估计,以应对观测模糊导致无法确定单一正确位姿的情况。为进一步降低不确定性,设计了第二视角模块,计算互补的位姿分布并进行融合,从而减少整体不确定性并提升效率。此外,还包含两个独立模块用于补偿抓取误差。模块化结构允许根据物理配置灵活组合或单独使用。在真实场景中对三种不同物体进行测试,结果表明所有模块均有效提升效率且无错误发生。实验表明,结合位姿分布与抓取误差建模是构建更灵活、可靠机器人系统的重要方向。据我们所知,这是首个通过可互换模块联合处理抓取与位姿不确定性的框架。当前限于SO(2)中的位姿不确定性,未来可扩展至SE(3),支持更多模块增强性能。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
In recent years, there has been growing interest in robust robotic systems for precise bin-picking applications. To achieve reliable performance, such systems must address errors arising from both the object pose estimation and the grasping process. Although various approaches have been proposed, they typically target specific challenges and do not offer general solutions. In this paper, we present a modular framework that jointly handles both error types. The framework incorporates object pose distribution estimation to account for pose uncertainty, which frequently arises in situations with ambiguous observations where a single correct pose cannot be determined. To further reduce uncertainty, we introduce a second-viewpoint module that computes complementary pose distributions, which are subsequently fused. This fusion decreases overall uncertainty and improves system efficiency. Additionally, two independent modules are included to compensate for grasping errors. The modular design allows the components to be combined for optimal performance or used individually, depending on the physical setup. The proposed method is evaluated in a real-world setup with three different objects, with no errors, and all modules are shown to improve efficiency. These results suggest that incorporating pose distributions with grasping pose errors is a promising direction for developing more flexible and reliable robotic production systems. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first framework that jointly addresses both grasping and object pose uncertainties using interchangeable modules. We believe there is ample opportunity to integrate additional modules, resulting in improved performance and flexibility. The current framework is limited to pose uncertainties in SO(2), but it could be extended to SE(3), enabling additional modules to improve the system.
