Abstract

Robotic manipulation is still a challenge. It involves many complex aspects such as tactile perception of a wide variety of objects and materials, grip control to plan robotic hand posture, etc. Most of the previous work used expensive sensors for tactile perception tasks. This fact implies difficulty in transferring application results to industry. In this work, a grip detection system is proposed. It uses DIGIT sensors based on low-cost image technology. The method developed, which is based on deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), is capable of detecting contact or non-contact, with success rates greater than 95 %. The system has been trained and tested on our own dataset, composed of more than 16,000 images from different object grasping, also using several DIGIT units. The detection method is part of a grip controller used with a ROBOTIQ 2F-140 gripper.
