Grand Challenges in Robotics: Dexterity
Conversation 4 on Robot Dexterity: Industrial Dexterity: Rate, Range, and Reliability

E-Commerce has increased dramatically due to the pandemic, putting tremendous pressure on warehouses to meet the demand. As each order and package varies, robots must dynamically and reliably plan grasps and motions at a high rate of speed for a broad range of packages. Warehouse applications are a “sweet spot” for emerging advanced in robot sensing, planning, and control; a number of companies are using “Industrial Dexterity” to handle millions of packages per day. This panel will consider the state of the art and open problems for the new research.
