Tac2Pose: Tactile object pose estimation from the first touch by Bauza, Maria, Bronars, Antonia, Rodriguez, Alberto

“…This suggests synergistic use of Tac2Pose with additional sensing modalities (e.g., vision) even in cases where the tactile observation from a grasp is not sufficiently discriminative. Given a coarse estimate of an object’s pose, even ambiguous contacts can be used to determine an object’s pose precisely. …”
