Pyramid-Monozone Synergistic Grasping Policy in Dense Clutter
<|reference_start|>Pyramid-Monozone Synergistic Grasping Policy in Dense Clutter: Grasping a diverse range of novel objects from dense clutter poses a great challenge to robots because of the occlusion among these objects. In this work, we propose the Pyramid-Monozone Synergistic Grasping Policy (PMSGP) that enables robots to cleverly avoid most occlusions during grasping. Specifically, we initially construct the Pyramid Se quencing Policy (PSP) to sequence each object in the scene into a pyramid structure. By isolating objects layer-by-layer, the grasp candidates will focus on a single layer during each grasp. Then, we devise the Monozone Sampling Policy (MSP) to sample the grasp candidates in the top layer. Through this manner, each grasp will target the topmost object, thereby effectively avoiding most occlusions. We perform more than 7000 real world grasping among 300 novel objects in dense clutter scenes, demonstrating that PMSGP significantly outperforms seven competitive grasping methods.
