Simulated Robotic Gripper Manipulation

Harsha Srivatsa built a Reflexive Manipulation Lab simulation using GPT Astra 6, integrating Google Fruit Fly brain and live Jev actions on a simulated robotic gripper arm.

How does a Robotic gripper know how much pressure to apply and how to grip the object to prevent it from slipping? I built Reflexive Manipulation Lab simulation with GPT Astra 6 integrating Google Fruit Fly brain + Live Jev actions on a simulated robotic gripper arm. https://t.co/ZQYIqEbdsM

The project explores how a robotic gripper can determine how much pressure to apply and how to grip an object to prevent it from slipping.

  • Evaluates Machine Faults with Jev

    The project replays compressor telemetry through an emulated device, uses code to flag suspicious behavior, and asks Jev to identify the fault described by a machine manual.

  • Jev Returns Cups After a Cup Moves

    Jev was instructed to return all the cups. After a cup was moved mid-task, it dropped the planned right-arm handoff, picked up the cup with its left arm, and finished the task.

  • Jev Controls a Drone in Simulation

    Raghav put Jev in a simulation, gave it controls for a drone, and assigned it a mission. A camera-to-perception pipeline feeds Jev, which decides where to go and look, when to move on, and sends controls to the drone.

  • Hand Gestures Control a Computer

    Jev detects hand gestures and movement to control a computer in real time.
