Summary

Graspirng objects is an important capability for humanoid robots. Due to complexity of environmental and diversity of objects, it is difficult for the robot to accurately recognize and grasp multiple objects. In response to this problem, we propose a robotic grasping method that uses the deep learning method You Only Look Once v3 for multi-target detection and the auxiliary signs to obtain target location. The method can control the movement of the robot and plan the grasping trajectory based on visual feedback information. It is verified by experiments that this method can make the humanoid robot NAO grasp the object effectively, and the success rate of grasping can reach 80% in the experimental environment.
