We present and evaluate an approach for human-in-the-loop specification of shape reconstruction with annotations for basic robot-object interactions. Our method is based on the idea of model annotation: the addition of simple cues to an underlying object model to specify shape and delineate a simple task. The goal is to explore reducing the complexity of CAD-like interfaces so that novice users can quickly recover an object's shape and describe a manipulation task that is then carried out by a robot. The object modeling and interaction annotation capabilities are tested with a user study and compared against results obtained using existing approaches. The approach has been analyzed using a variety of shape comparison, grasping, and manipulation metrics, and tested with the PR2 robot platform, where it was shown to be successful.
While several methods abound that use existing 3D mesh objects or that detect them from 2D-views or point clouds, less effort has been paid to linking grasps to simpler shape representations or proxies like the ones obtained in @cite_121 @cite_110 . As mentioned previously, these proxies are compact versions of objects, and can be used to represent categories as well as instances, and help indicate shape, as well as topology. Linking grasps to these might work as a sort of look-up table for grasps.

In this paper we present a method for building models for grasping from a single 3D snapshot of a scene composed of objects of daily use in human living environments. We employ fast shape estimation, probabilistic model fitting and verification methods capable of dealing with different kinds of symmetries, and combine these with a triangular mesh of the parts that have no other representation to model previously unseen objects of arbitrary shape. Our approach is enhanced by the information given by the geometric clues about different parts of objects which serve as prior information for the selection of the appropriate reconstruction method. While we designed our system for grasping based on single view 3D data, its generality allows us to also use the combination of multiple views. We present two application scenarios that require complete geometric models: grasp planning and locating objects in camera images. To reduce data collection time for deep learning of robust robotic grasp plans, we explore training from a synthetic dataset of 6.7 million point clouds, grasps, and analytic grasp metrics generated from thousands of 3D models from Dex-Net 1.0 in randomized poses on a table. We use the resulting dataset, Dex-Net 2.0, to train a Grasp Quality Convolutional Neural Network (GQ-CNN) model that rapidly predicts the probability of success of grasps from depth images, where grasps are specified as the planar position, angle, and depth of a gripper relative to an RGB-D sensor. Experiments with over 1,000 trials on an ABB YuMi comparing grasp planning methods on singulated objects suggest that a GQ-CNN trained with only synthetic data from Dex-Net 2.0 can be used to plan grasps in 0.8sec with a success rate of 93 on eight known objects with adversarial geometry and is 3x faster than registering point clouds to a precomputed dataset of objects and indexing grasps. The Dex-Net 2.0 grasp planner also has the highest success rate on a dataset of 10 novel rigid objects and achieves 99 precision (one false positive out of 69 grasps classified as robust) on a dataset of 40 novel household objects, some of which are articulated or deformable.

In this paper, we present a novel framework to drive automatic robotic grasp by matching camera captured RGB-D data with 3D meshes, on which prior knowledge for grasp is pre-defined for each object type. The proposed framework consists of two modules, namely, pre-defining grasping knowledge for each type of object shape on 3D meshes, and automatic robotic grasping by matching RGB-D data with pre-defined 3D meshes. In the first module, we scan 3D meshes for typical object shapes and pre-define grasping regions for each 3D shape surface, which will be considered as the prior knowledge for guiding automatic robotic grasp. In the second module, for each RGB-D image captured by a depth camera, we recognize 2D shape of the object in it by an SVM classifier, and then segment it from background using depth data. Next, we propose a new algorithm to match the segmented RGB-D shape with predefined 3D meshes to guide robotic self-location and grasp by an automatic way. Our experimental results show that the proposed framework is particularly useful to guide camera based robotic grasp.
