Good, simple, efficient manner to meet the design parameters. The generic shapes are probably representative of many target objects. It is great that this concept besides the various shapes also provides the possibility to integrate the tool in testing machines. It considers how grip tests might be performed and provides a simple solution for it (i.e., on a tensile testing machine) while keeping the entire system intact.

Complex but very functional once it can be manufactured. The set of shapes represented here is good, though it would probably be better if each of the shapes could be physically isolated. It might be difficult to test a gripper's interaction with only one of the features without contacting another feature.

It is great that this concept besides the various shapes could also challenge the balancing of the construction while being assembled. The skills could be more or less challenged using thicker or thinner "base stand."

This solution looks one step beyond the design intent by integrating force sensors into the target object. It's also great that the designer has considered how different shapes can be assembled around the sensing core. This concept considers that it is not always enough to "just" grip the part "somehow", but also that is it is gripped safely (force). Appears to be limited in how small it could be made to interface with “smaller” grippers.

We like the simplicity of this solution. It appears to be an object that lends itself to traditional manufacturing techniques.

We like the idea of having a range of surface curvatures on a single object, though it might be better for practical reasons (but not as aesthetically pleasing) to not have each of the surfaces starting from a cut-out on a surface of the cube. For example, if the surface should be convex outwards then it should start from the outermost face of the cube and not from an already lowered position relative to the face. We also like that the user can add mass to the core of the cube.

Compact design that addresses all gripper functionality.

Good idea! The generic shapes are probably representative of many target objects, though they might be more useful as individual components. I think it's particularly clever to integrate modular pieces with different surface properties. It is great that this concept also challenges the gripper ability to grip different material properties. This enables testing of different porosities which is a critical issue for vacuum based grippers. We would like to have seen an ID surface large enough to interface with a two or three jaw ID gripper, too.

This compact, clever and aesthteically pleasing design enables grippers to test not only a range of simple objects but also their ability to assemble simple components.

Good solution, and good producability. The range of shapes (especially in the last image) is good and likely representative of many target objects. The designer indicated in the description that each part could be attached to/detached from the center, for example, using screws. This is probably better to enable the isolation of shapes during testing.

Abstract art meets design intent. Not only is the range of objects interesting and likely representative of many target objects, but designing the parts to test robot grippers' ability to assemble components is interesting. This design is very modular yet simple.

The range of generic objects is good and likely representative of many target objects. Some of the modular objects, like the cube that can be separated into smaller "teeth" and a thin plate, is great for easily realizing a variety of objects with a compact design. The hollow sphere is also a clever way to control the mass or inertia of an object.

Good array of different shapes and structures.

This is a very creative solution. Ram Ganesh produced a multidimensional gripper test object. Different shapes and structures that maybe can even be disassembled for gripping tests in case a gripper would interfere with the overall tool. And, we like chess as a nice, overall theme.
