Dexterous grasp generation across robot hands is challenging because hands differ in kinematic topology, actuation dimensions, and native command spaces. We introduce GraspGraphNet, a topology-aware grasp generation framework that represents each hand as a URDF-derived kinematic graph and directly generates executable palm poses and joint configurations. GraspGraphNet combines hierarchical object surface encoding, differentiable forward kinematics, and dynamic world-edge message passing to model evolving robot-object interactions. It applies conditional flow matching directly in executable palm-pose and joint-state space, avoiding post-processing optimization, inverse kinematics, and retargeting. Using a shared model trained on Barrett Hand, Allegro Hand, and Shadow Hand, GraspGraphNet achieves an average success rate of 83.48% with 40ms inference time per grasp on a 40-object benchmark. Without retraining, the same model achieves 72.70% success on controlled finger-removal variants, demonstrating robustness to hand-topology variations. These results suggest that graph-structured hand representations can effectively support dexterous grasp generation across robot hands with different kinematic structures.

Dexterous grasp synthesis has advanced rapidly in generating stable and physically plausible hand poses, but real-world manipulation requires grasps that preserve the function implied by the task. We study open-vocabulary task-oriented dexterous grasp generation, where a robot must infer functional intent from free-form language, ground it in multi-view visual observations and object geometry, and generate an executable high-degree-of-freedom grasp. We present OpenDexGrasp, a unified data and generative modeling framework for this setting. OpenDexVerse provides dual-source supervision organized by the Coverage-to-Alignment (C2A) Recipe: OpenDex-Scale offers large-scale semantic and geometric coverage through automatic grasp synthesis and vision-language annotation, while OpenDex-Align supplies high-quality embodied alignment through human teleoperation and category-level transfer. OpenDexGrasp learns a shared perception-action latent representation that couples open-vocabulary vision-language context with dexterous action generation. Affordance grounding and grasp generation provide complementary supervision over this latent space, enabling direct generation of task-consistent dexterous grasps without a separate affordance-to-pose inference stage. Extensive simulation and real-robot experiments demonstrate improved functional alignment, physical feasibility, generalization to unseen categories, and real-world execution success.

Generating 3D hand-object interactions is essential for applications in robotics, XR, and synthetic data generation, where flexible controllability and strong generalization to diverse object geometries are required. However, existing methods rarely satisfy these requirements, limiting their practical applicability. We present DCGrasp, a distance-aware controllable grasp generation system built on a novel grasp energy term. This term computes Distance Profile, a signed distance from each hand vertex to the nearest object point, coupled with distance-aware weighting, effectively capturing the semantically similar hand-object interaction in near-contact regions while remaining invariant to object and hand identity. Given various controllable signals, DCGrasp first generates a Distance Profile based on a Diffusion Transformer, together with a corresponding candidate hand pose. We then refine the candidate pose through optimization, enforcing consistency between the optimized hand pose and the generated Distance Profile in near-contact regions. Our experiments show that DCGrasp produces high-quality, physically plausible grasps with flexible user control, generalizing to diverse object and hand shapes and scales. Our work establishes a robust and versatile pipeline for the synthesis of controllable 3D hand-object interactions.
This work addresses sequentially grasping multiple objects with a single dexterous hand without releasing those already held. Most dexterous grasping methods commit all of the hand's degrees of freedom to a single object, underutilizing its dexterity and leaving no redundancy for subsequent grasps. The proposed solution, MoDex, is a diffusion policy that predicts the next gripper pose directly from observations, conditioned on an opposition space and point cloud. The opposition space condition specifies which fingers participate in the current grasp, enabling the gripper to use only a subset of its available degrees of freedom while reserving the remaining degrees of freedom for subsequent grasps. To facilitate sim-to-real transfer, MoDex is trained in two stages: first through imitation learning on expert demonstrations, and subsequently through reinforcement learning fine-tuning, which consistently improves success rates over the pre-trained policy. We evaluate MoDex in simulation on a MuJoCo-based Franka Emika Panda robot equipped with an Allegro Hand and on the corresponding real-world hardware platform. Across both simulation and real-world experiments, MoDex achieves higher success rates than the evaluated learning-based baselines, improving performance by 2.92-17.92% and 6.67-17.78%, respectively.
