Team KTH’s Picking Solution for the Amazon Picking Challenge 2016

• In this chapter we summarize the solution developed by team KTH for the Amazon Picking Challenge 2016 in Leipzig, Germany. The competition, which simulated a warehouse automation scenario, was divided into two parts: a picking task, where the robot picks items from a shelf and places them into a tote, and a stowing task, where the robot picks items from a tote and places them in a shelf. We describe our approach to the problem starting with a high-level overview of the system, delving later into the details of our perception pipeline and strategy for manipulation and grasping. The hardware platform used in our solution consists of a Baxter robot equipped with multiple vision sensors.
