Researchers have developed MultiGraspNet, a novel 3D deep learning model designed for robotic grasping that can predict feasible poses for both parallel and vacuum grippers simultaneously. This multitask approach allows a single robot to utilize multiple end effectors, overcoming limitations of existing single-gripper or custom-gripper methods. Trained on the GraspNet-1Billion and SuctionNet-1Billion datasets, MultiGraspNet generates graspability masks and maintains a compact architecture with 15.75 million parameters for efficient inference. Experimental results show its competitiveness with single-task models and superior performance over other multi-gripper approaches in real-world robotic setups. AI
