Evaluation of different robotic grippers for simultaneous multi-object grasping.

ABSTRACT: For certain tasks in logistics, especially bin picking and packing, humans resort to a strategy of grasping multiple objects simultaneously, thus reducing picking and transport time. In contrast, robotic systems mainly grasp only one object per picking action, which leads to inefficiencies that could be solved with a smarter gripping hardware and strategies. Development of new manipulators, robotic hands, hybrid or specialized grippers, can already consider such challenges for multi-object grasping in the design stages. This paper introduces different hardware solutions and tests possible grasp strategies for the simultaneous grasping of multiple objects (SGMO). The four hardware solutions presented here are: an under-actuated Constriction Gripper, Linear Scoop Gripper suitable for deform-
