Towards Multi-Object Nonprehensile Transportation via Shared Teleoperation: A Framework Based on Virtual Object Model Predictive Control
Multi-object nonprehensile transportation in teleoperation demands simultaneous trajectory tracking and tray orientation control. Existing methods often struggle with model dependency, uncertain parameters, and multi-object adaptability. We propose a shared teleoperation framework where humans and robots share positioning control, while the robot autonomously manages orientation to satisfy dynamic constraints. Key contributions include: 1) A theoretical dynamic constraint analysis utilizing a novel virtual object (VO)-based method to simplify constraints for trajectory planning. 2) An MPC-based trajectory smoothing algorithm that enforces real-time constraints and coordinates user tracking with orientation control. 3) Validations demonstrating stable manipulation of nine objects at accelerations up to 2.4 m/s2. Compared to the baseline, our approach reduces sliding distance by 72.45% and eliminates tip-overs (0% vs. 13.9%), proving robust adaptability in complex scenarios.

Robotic Nonprehensile Object Transportation with a Hanging Tray
We consider the nonprehensile object transportation task known as the waiter's problem, in which a robot must move an object balanced on a tray from one location to another. In contrast to prior works on the robotic wait…
Learning Geometry-Aware Nonprehensile Pushing and Pulling with Dexterous Hands
Nonprehensile manipulation, such as pushing and pulling, enables robots to move, align, or reposition objects that may be difficult to grasp due to their geometry, size, or relationship to the robot or the environment. M…
Tele-Catch: Adaptive Teleoperation for Dexterous Dynamic 3D Object Catching
Teleoperation is a key paradigm for transferring human dexterity to robots, yet most prior work targets objects that are initially static, such as grasping or manipulation. Dynamic object catch, where objects move before…
