Randomized Physics-based Motion Planning for Grasping in Cluttered and Uncertain Environments.

Planning motions to grasp an object in cluttered and uncertain environments is a challenging task, particularly when a collision-free trajectory does not exist and objects obstructing the way are required to be carefully grasped and moved out. This letter takes a different approach and proposes to address this problem by using a randomized physics-based motion planner that permits robot-object and...
