Dear colleagues, We have just released our latest grasp detection software as a ROS package: http://www.ccs.neu.edu/research/helpinghands/code.html git page: https://github.com/atenpas/gpd video: https://youtu.be/kfe5bNt35ZI The software is an easy-to-use package for grasping novel objects. Given a point cloud, the package detects 6-DOF grasp poses for a 2-finger grasp (e.g., a parallel jaw gripper). It works both on isolated objects and in densely cluttered scenes, and it has already been deployed on various platforms, including a UR5, Baxter, HSR, ... Features: * No object models required * No object segmentation required * No training required * Grasp poses are 6-DOF (allows a variety of grasp approach directions) * Can use any point cloud (better point clouds results in better performance) * Visualization in rviz or pcl Requirements: * RGBD camera, Nvidia graphics card with CUDA * Caffe, PCL 1.7 or higher, Eigen * Ubuntu 14.04 with ROS Indigo or Ubuntu 16.04 with ROS Kinetic Check it out!
