Graspless manipulation is to manipulate objects without grasping. That includes pushing, tumbling, pivoting, and so on (Fig. 1). Graspless manipulation enables robots to manipulate objects with smaller load and enhances their dexterity. However, we have difficulties in planning of robot motion for graspless manipulation. In planning of graspless manipulation, we have to consider mechanics in addition to geometry, because motion of the manipulated object depends on mechanical conditions such as friction. Moreover, a robot may be able to push an object but may not be able to pull it because of the unilateral nature of contact forces. The irreversibility of manipulation caused by mechanics makes planning more difficult. We have developed an al...
