Any-ttach: Quick End-effector Swapping Enables Manipulation Dexterity with Simplicity
This research presents Any-ttach, a tool-centric manipulation system that leverages mechanical modularity to enable autonomous end-effector swapping. The system supports 15 heterogeneous modules ranging from robotic fingers to articulated tools like scissors through a unified object-centric framework. Experiments demonstrate reliable autonomous swapping, automatic integration of new tools, and broad manipulation capabilities across different skill sources, including multi-tool long-horizon tasks.
The paper introduces Any-ttach, a modular robotic manipulation system that enables autonomous swapping of 15 heterogeneous end-effector modules via a low-cost standardized interface, demonstrating reliable integration and task execution across different tools and skill sources.
