SuperGrasp: Single-View Object Grasping via Superquadric Similarity Matching, Evaluation, and Refinement

Robotic grasping from single-view observations remains a critical challenge in manipulation. However, existing methods still struggle to generate reliable grasp candidates and stably evaluate grasp feasibility under incomplete geometric information. To address these limitations, we present SuperGrasp, a new two-stage framework for single-view parallel-jaw grasping. In the first stage, we introduce a Similarity Matching Module that efficiently retrieves valid and diverse grasp candidates by matching the input single-view point cloud with a precomputed primitive dataset based on superquadric coefficients. In the second stage, we propose E-RNet, an end-to-end network that expands the grasp-aware region and takes the initial grasp closure region as a local anchor region, capturing the contextual relationship between the local region and its surrounding spatial neighborhood, thereby enabling more accurate and reliable grasp evaluation and introducing small-range local refinement to improve grasp adaptability. To enhance generalization, we construct a primitive dataset containing 1.2k standard geometric primitives for similarity matching and collect a point cloud dataset of 100k samples from 124 objects, annotated with stable grasp labels for network training. Extensive experiments in both simulation and real-world environments demonstrate that our method achieves stable grasping performance and good generalization across novel objects and clutter scenes.

GAPG: Geometry Aware Push-Grasping Synergy for Goal-Oriented Manipulation in Clutter

Grasping target objects is a fundamental skill for robotic manipulation, but in cluttered environments with stacked or occluded objects, a single-step grasp is often insufficient. To address this, previous work has introduced pushing as an auxiliary action to create graspable space. However, these methods often struggle with both stability and efficiency because they neglect the scene's geometric information, which is essential for evaluating grasp robustness and ensuring that pushing actions are safe and effective. To this end, we propose a geometry-aware push-grasp synergy framework that leverages point cloud data to integrate grasp and push evaluation. Specifically, the grasp evaluation module analyzes the geometric relationship between the gripper's point cloud and the points enclosed within its closing region to determine grasp feasibility and stability. Guided by this, the push evaluation module predicts how pushing actions influence future graspable space, enabling the robot to select actions that reliably transform non-graspable states into graspable ones. By jointly reasoning about geometry in both grasping and pushing, our framework achieves safer, more efficient, and more reliable manipulation in cluttered settings. Our method is extensively tested in simulation and real-world environments in various scenarios. Experimental results demonstrate that our model generalizes well to real-world scenes and unseen objects.

A Dataset and Benchmark for Robotic Cloth Unfolding Grasp Selection: The ICRA 2024 Cloth Competition

Robotic cloth manipulation suffers from a lack of standardized benchmarks and shared datasets for evaluating and comparing different approaches. To address this, we created a benchmark and organized the ICRA 2024 Cloth Competition, a unique head-to-head evaluation focused on grasp pose selection for in-air robotic cloth unfolding. Eleven diverse teams participated in the competition, utilizing our publicly released dataset of real-world robotic cloth unfolding attempts and a variety of methods to design their unfolding approaches. Afterwards, we also expanded our dataset with 176 competition evaluation trials, resulting in a dataset of 679 unfolding demonstrations across 34 garments. Analysis of the competition results revealed insights about the trade-off between grasp success and coverage, the surprisingly strong achievements of hand-engineered methods and a significant discrepancy between competition performance and prior work, underscoring the importance of independent, out-of-the-lab evaluation in robotic cloth manipulation. The associated dataset is a valuable resource for developing and evaluating grasp selection methods, particularly for learning-based approaches. We hope that our benchmark, dataset and competition results can serve as a foundation for future benchmarks and drive further progress in data-driven robotic cloth manipulation. The dataset and benchmarking code are available at https://airo.ugent.be/cloth_competition.
