Adaptive Grasping

GraspComp

GraspComp

Primitive Description and Usage

  • Description: This primitive controls the gripper to perform compliant grasping motions. The gripper moves along the contact direction to contact the surface of the object and maintains contact with the surface of the object during grasping. This primitive terminates when the grip force or grip force reaches the set value. During the grasping process, the robot keeps moving compliantly to avoid damaging the gripper or the object.

  • Example Usage: Use this primitive to grasp objects whose position is uncertain.
