Abstract:Cross-end-effector grasp generation seeks a unified model that generalizes across objects and across embodiments ranging from parallel grippers to dexterous end effectors. Existing grasp generators are typically designed for a fixed embodiment or encode embodiment identity with a static descriptor, which weakens transfer when topology, actuation coupling, and contact geometry differ substantially. We present EAGG, an embodiment-aligned grasp generator that represents each embodiment with a topology-aware end-effector graph and an embodiment-specific low-dimensional end-effector control space. A frozen end-effector-cognition backbone converts the current articulated state into geometry-aware tokens that act as a reusable morphology prior, and iterative geometry injection refreshes these tokens throughout sampling so that conditioning remains synchronized with the evolving end-effector geometry. On the MultiGripperGrasp benchmark, EAGG reaches 56.17% average success across six training end effectors, remaining within 1.10 percentage points of specialized training while preserving transfer to finetuning and zero-shot end effectors. Iterative geometry injection further reduces the pooled median contact distance from 0.239 cm to 0.189 cm. These results show that cross-end-effector grasp generation is strengthened by aligning embodiment structure inside a shared generator rather than suppressing embodiment differences.

Abstract:6-DoF object-agnostic grasping in unstructured environments is a critical yet challenging task in robotics. Most current works use non-optimized approaches to sample grasp locations and learn spatial features without concerning the grasping task. This paper proposes GraNet, a graph-based grasp pose generation framework that translates a point cloud scene into multi-level graphs and propagates features through graph neural networks. By building graphs at the scene level, object level, and grasp point level, GraNet enhances feature embedding at multiple scales while progressively converging to the ideal grasping locations by learning. Our pipeline can thus characterize the spatial distribution of grasps in cluttered scenes, leading to a higher rate of effective grasping. Furthermore, we enhance the representation ability of scalable graph networks by a structure-aware attention mechanism to exploit local relations in graphs. Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on the large-scale GraspNet-1Billion benchmark, especially in grasping unseen objects (+11.62 AP). The real robot experiment shows a high success rate in grasping scattered objects, verifying the effectiveness of the proposed approach in unstructured environments.
