用流形结构统一处理接触规划,实现快速精准操作。
Contact Modes Are Strata: What Geometric Structure Buys in Discrete-Continuous Planning
- 将接触模式视为配置空间的流形层,显式建模运动约束
- 在模拟中两任务均秒级求解,无需预设接触序列
- 适合高精度抓取与复杂环境下的机器人操作研究
接触丰富的操作同时涉及离散选择(哪些接触存在)和连续规划(如何移动)。两者通过维数变化耦合:每个维持的接触将机器人的运动限制在更低维的流形上。本文提出将接触模式直接视为配置空间的流形层,使规划变为在流形层间移动,层内路径为测地线。在两个模拟任务中——推动T型块绕障碍物、灵巧手重定向立方体——该规划器在无预先给定模式、接触序列或流形的情况下,均能在数秒内返回可行解。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Contact-rich manipulation poses a discrete question and a continuous one at once, namely which contacts are active and how to move while they hold. The two are coupled by a change of dimension, since each contact that a robot maintains confines its motion to a lower-dimensional manifold. We make that coupling the explicit object of planning by observing that a contact mode is not merely analogous to a stratum of the configuration space; it is one. A plan is then a walk over strata whose within-stratum segments are geodesics. On two contact-rich manipulation tasks in simulation, pushing a T-shaped block around obstacles and reorienting a cube in a dexterous hand, our planner returns solutions within seconds with no mode, contact sequence, or stratum given in advance.
