Abstract
Current industrial robotic manipulators have made evident their lack of flexibility. The systems must know beforehand the piece and it’s position. To address this issue, contemporary approaches typically employ learning-based techniques, which rely on extensive amounts of data. To obtain vast data, an often sought tool is an extensive grasp dataset. This work introduces our Physics-Based Self-Supervised Grasp Pose Detection (PBSS-GPD) pipeline for model-based grasping point detection, useful to generate grasp pose datasets. Given a gripper-object pair, it samples grasping pose candidates using a modified version of GPD (implementing inner-grasps, CAD support...) and quantifies their quality using the MuJoCo physics engine and a grasp quality metric that takes into account the pose of the object over time. The system is optimised to run on CPU in headless-parallelised mode, with the option of running in a graphical interface or headless and storing videos of the process. The system has been validated obtaining grasping poses for a subset of Egad! objects using the Franka Panda two-finger gripper, compared with state of the art grasp generation pipelines and tested in a real scenario. While our system achieves similar accuracy compared to a contemporary approach, 84% on the real world validation, it has proven to be effective at generating grasps with good centering 18 times faster than the compared system.
