SuctionPrompt: 視覚言語モデルと簡易ハードウェア設計による吸引カップ把持

原文アブストラクト

The development of large language models and vision-language models (VLMs) has resulted in the increasing use of robotic systems in various fields. However, the effective integration of these models into real-world robotic tasks is a key challenge. We developed a versatile robotic system called SuctionPrompt that utilizes prompting techniques of VLMs combined with 3D detections to perform product-picking tasks in diverse and dynamic environments. Our method highlights the importance of integrating 3D spatial information with adaptive action planning to enable robots to approach and manipulate objects in novel environments. In the validation experiments, the system accurately selected suction points 75.4%, and achieved a 65.0% success rate in picking common items. This study highlights the effectiveness of VLMs in robotic manipulation tasks, even with simple 3D processing.
