  Robotic picking from cluttered bins is a demanding task, for which Amazon
Robotics holds challenges. The 2017 Amazon Robotics Challenge (ARC) required
stowing items into a storage system, picking specific items, and packing them
into boxes. In this paper, we describe the entry of team NimbRo Picking. Our
deep object perception pipeline can be quickly and efficiently adapted to new
items using a custom turntable capture system and transfer learning. It
produces high-quality item segments, on which grasp poses are found. A planning
component coordinates manipulation actions between two robot arms, minimizing
execution time. The system has been demonstrated successfully at ARC, where our
team reached second places in both the picking task and the final stow-and-pick
task. We also evaluate individual components.
