Abstract
Some implementations are directed to methods and apparatus for determining, based on sensor data generated during physical manipulation of a robot by a user, one or more grasp parameters to associate with an object model. Some implementations are directed to methods and apparatus for determining control commands to provide to actuator(s) of a robot to attempt a grasp of an object, where those control commands are determined based on grasp parameters associated with an object model that conforms to the object. The grasp parameter(s) associated with an object model may include end effector pose(s) that each define a pose of a grasping end effector relative to the object model and/or translational force measure(s) that each indicate force applied to an object by a grasping end effector, where the force is at least partially the result of translation of an entirety of the grasping end effector.
