Teaching dexterous robotic hands to grasp like humans is one of the holy grails in robotics.

In this project, we take a step towards achieving this goal! Our method enables functional grasping of unseen objects from single images of human grasps. Check out the project below
People grasp objects with different poses for different tasks. Can dexterous robots possess similar functional grasping capabilities? Our recent work FunGrasp enables this for various unseen objects, diverse task-specific poses, and different robot hands.
