GraspSAM: When Segment Anything Model Meets Grasp Detection

Abstract

Grasp detection requires flexibility to handle objects of various shapes without relying on prior knowledge of the object, while also offering intuitive, user-guided control. This paper introduces GraspSAM, an innovative extension of the Segment Anything Model (SAM), designed for prompt-driven and category-agnostic grasp detection. Unlike previous methods, which are often limited by small-scale training data, GraspSAM leverages the large-scale training and prompt-based segmentation capabilities of SAM to efficiently support both target-object and category-agnostic grasping. By utilizing adapters, learnable token embeddings, and a lightweight modified decoder, GraspSAM requires minimal fine-tuning to integrate object segmentation and grasp prediction into a unified framework. The model achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance across multiple datasets, including Jacquard, Grasp-Anything, and Grasp-Anything++. Extensive experiments demonstrate the flexibility of GraspSAM in handling different types of prompts (such as points, boxes, and language), highlighting its robustness and effectiveness in real-world robotic applications.
