Abstract
Bin picking is a highly researched topic, due to the need for automated procedures in industrial environments. A general bin picking system requires a highly structured process, starting with data acquisition, and ending with pose estimation and grasping. A high number of bin picking problems are being presently solved, through deep learning networks, combined with distinct procedures. This study provides a comprehensive review of deep learning approaches, implemented in bin picking problems. Throughout the review are described several approaches and learning methods based on specific domains, such as gripper oriented and object oriented, as well as summarized several methodologies, in order to solve bin picking issues. Furthermore, are introduced current strategies used to simplify particular cases and at last, are presented peculiar means of detecting object poses.
