The goal of this project will be to develop a complete robotic system for "Manufacturing Track" of the robotic grasping and manipulation competition of IEEE ICRA 2024 and IEEE IROS 2024.
We have won this competition in 2019 and we can do it again!
The goal of the robotic grasping and manipulation competition is to test the capabilities of a complete robotic system in performing assembly operations relative to small-parts manufacturing processes using assembly task boards. The task boards used for this competition are developed as part of a NIST project to support the advancement of robotic systems.

The project will focus on the development of a complete robotic system that will be able to recognize, grasp, and assemble various parts including flexible ones, and assemble a complete unknown task board in limited time. The manufacturing track will consist of two subtasks; an assembly subtask and a disassembly subtask using an unknown assembly task board.
Appropriate hardware for the development of the robotic system will be provided by the New Dexterity research group (www.newdexterity.org).
