Picking objects from clutter and accurately placing them is intuitive for a human but very challenging for a robot

Connecting rod

Objects with complex geometries, such as this connecting rod in a bin, results in an infinite number of unpredictable orientations for picking.

Connecting rod

Because of asymmetry and uneven mass distribution, objects easily get entangled making only a partial face visible for the most ideal part to be picked.

Connecting rod

This needs the system to understand and predict all possible gripping points on the revealed side, also considering hidden parts and choose the best part for picking.

Connecting rod

The part must then be selected based on the best picking orientation that can deliver the most accurate placement. This requires more visual data than just color and 3D depth maps.

Connecting rod

The trajectory for gripping, oriented pick, and oriented placement, to be computed & fed to the robot as suited to pick the connecting rod of an untrained random orientation in a bin.

Vision for object manipulation requires dynamic image acquisition hardware, with the ability to focus, refocus, pan, zoom, move around in real-time, and adaptively acquire at high speeds.

Multi-Dimensional Perception

Not 2D, not 3D, we see a lot more!

Static 2D color images and 3D depth maps alone are insufficient inputs for neural networks to model the complexities of objects. Our imaging pathway acquires and constructs more than 7 fundamental dimensions of information, dramatically reducing the quantum of data for learning.

Frequently Asked Questions

3D Bin-picking solutions currently available in the market perform basic pattern-matching algorithms on sparse 3D depth-map data. Therefore they work only when object geometries are simple, with no occlusion or entanglement, with at least one part fully visible in the viewing angle trained for, and can only approximately pick and drop objects not accurately place objects. The purpose of picking an object during a manual task is almost always to place it in the desired orientation, hence approximate picks and drops find very limited use-cases. CynLr solution is a full-scale manual task automation platform capable of learning to manipulate – pick, orient, and accurately place - any geometry object even from occluded conditions.

Deep Neural Networks for image analysis have evolved for object identification use-cases and follow a typical Classification-> Localization-> Detection-> Segmentation approach not suitable for object manipulation applications. Automation of manual tasks on shop floors demands at least 99.999% accuracy and repeatability, which traditional deep learning models cannot achieve even with billions of images of training data. It is practically infeasible to obtain training data for all possible scenarios of even a single object.

Instead of high volumes of low-dimensionality information (millions of XY-RGB (2D-Colour) or XYZ(3D) images) for training, our visual processing system constructs more than 7 dimensions of information, closely mimicking the human visual cortex. This enables the cognition of objects from a manipulation point of view (PoV) instead of just an identification PoV, and thus enables us to achieve sub-millimeter accuracies of pose estimations in real-time for the robot to grip and place the object precisely.
