  • Robotic manipulator systems and methods involving non-planar and/or deformable support structures
    Patent number: 11858139
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and systems are disclosed for a robotic manipulator system including a robotic manipulator, a controller, one or more sensors, and a support structure. The support structure may be non-planar and/or deformable and may be designed to support an object on an upper surface. The one or more sensors may be directed towards the support structure and object. The controller and/or another computing device in communication with the controller may determine geometry of the support structure and may know or determine a compression value of the support structure. Using the compression value and/or geometry of the support structure, the controller may cause the robotic manipulator to grasp the object from the support structure and move the object to a new location.
