The input to our algorithm is a point cloud and the geometric parameters of the robot hand. The output is a set of hand configurations that are expected to be good grasps. Our key idea is to use knowledge of the geometry of a good grasp to improve detection. First, we use a geometrically necessary condition to sample a large set of high quality grasp hypotheses. We were surprised to find that using simple geometric conditions for detection can result in a relatively high grasp success rate.
