The PlayMate: An Object Manipulation Scenario
Hardware
The experiments with the integrated PlayMate systems are carried out at
the University of Birmingham, and DFKI using a PeopleBot, a B21r and a
Katana arm. Both the mobile platforms have one or two cameras mounted on
a pan-tilt unit which allow the robot to scan the scene. The Katana arm
used for manipulation also uses a wrist mounted camera to allow more
precise grasping of objects. Because we are limited to using a two finger
gripper we have currently restricted the graspable objects to everyday
objects like cereal packets.
