Abstract

The work presented here is embedded in research on an industrial application scenario, namely autonomous shipping-container unloading, which has several challenging constraints: the scene is very cluttered, objects can be much larger than in common table-top scenarios; the perception must be highly robust, while being as fast as possible. These contradicting goals force a compromise between speed and accuracy. In this work, we investigate a state of the art perception system integrated with a dexterous gripper. In particular, we are interested in pose estimation errors from the recognition module and whether these errors can be handled by the abilities of the gripper.
