Abstract: A fully automated and reliable picking of a diverse range of unseen objects in clutter is a challenging problem. The present disclosure provides an optimum grasp pose selection to pick an object from a bin. Initially, the system receives an input image pertaining to a surface. Further, a plurality of sampled grasp poses are generated in a random configuration. Further, a depth difference value is computed for each of a plurality of pixels corresponding to each of the plurality of sampled grasp poses. Further, a binary map is generated for each of the plurality of sampled grasp poses and a plurality of subregions are obtained. Further, a plurality of feasible grasp poses are selected based on the plurality of subregions and a plurality of conditions. Further, the plurality of feasible grasp poses are refined and an optimum grasp pose is obtained based on a Grasp Quality Score (GQS).

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and arrangements and related cell-free biomolecular breadboards configured to design, build, implement, debug, and/or test a genetic circuit to be operated in a target environment, by testing in a cell-free system under conditions of the target environment, molecular components of the genetic circuit and/or combinations thereof to select the molecular components and/or combinations thereof of a genetic circuit operative in the target environment.

Abstract: Reducing leakage current when a circuit contains a series of CMOS transistors. The probability that each input signal (connecting to the gate terminal of the corresponding CMOS transistor) will be at a logical value which turns off the corresponding CMOS transistor is determined. A CMOS transistor with a high threshold voltage may be connected to receive an input signal with a high probability to reduce the aggregate leakage current in the circuit. The approach may be used in any environments such as synthesis tools and also manual design methodologies.
