• Abstract summary: ArtiGrasp is a method to synthesize bi-manual hand-object interactions that include grasping and articulation. Our framework unifies grasping and articulation within a single policy guided by a single hand pose reference. We show that our method can generate motions with noisy hand-object pose estimates from an off-the-shelf image-based regressor.

• Abstract: We present ArtiGrasp, a novel method to synthesize bi-manual hand-object interactions that include grasping and articulation. This task is challenging due to the diversity of the global wrist motions and the precise finger control that are necessary to articulate objects. ArtiGrasp leverages reinforcement learning and physics simulations to train a policy that controls the global and local hand pose. Our framework unifies grasping and articulation within a single policy guided by a single hand pose reference. Moreover, to facilitate the training of the precise finger control required for articulation, we present a learning curriculum with increasing difficulty. It starts with single-hand manipulation of stationary objects and continues with multi-agent training including both hands and non-stationary objects. To evaluate our method, we introduce Dynamic Object Grasping and Articulation, a task that involves bringing an object into a target articulated pose. This task requires grasping, relocation, and articulation. We show our method's efficacy towards this task. We further demonstrate that our method can generate motions with noisy hand-object pose estimates from an off-the-shelf image-based regressor.

  We propose DiffH2O, a novel method to synthesize realistic, one or two-handed object interactions. We decompose the task into a grasping stage and a text-based interaction stage. In the grasping stage, the model only generates hand motions, whereas in the interaction phase both hand and object poses are synthesized.

  We present a modular framework designed to enable a robot hand-arm system to learn how to catch flying objects. Our framework consists of five core modules: (i) an object state estimator that learns object trajectory prediction, (ii) a catching pose quality network that learns to score and rank object poses for catching, (iii) a reaching control policy trained to move the robot hand to pre-catch poses, and (iv) a grasping control policy trained to perform soft catching motions. We conduct extensive evaluations of our framework in simulation for each module and the integrated system, to demonstrate high success rates of in-flight

  Hands are dexterous and highly versatile manipulators that are central to how humans interact with objects and their environment. modeling realistic hand-object interactions is critical for applications in computer graphics, computer vision, and mixed reality. GRIP is a learning-based method that takes as input the 3D motion of the body and the object, and synthesizes realistic motion for both hands before, during, and after object interaction.
