Systems and methods related to intelligent grippers with individual cup control are disclosed. One aspect of the disclosure provides a method of determining grip quality between a robotic gripper and an object. The method comprises applying a vacuum to two or more cup assemblies of the robotic gripper in contact with the object, moving the object with the robotic gripper after applying the vacuum to the two or more cup assemblies, and determining, using at least one pressure sensor associated with each of the two or more cup assemblies, a grip quality between the robotic gripper and the object.

Provided are a control device, a control method, and a control program capable of realizing natural interaction between a human and a robot like between humans. A control device according to an embodiment includes a slip detection unit (15, 104) and a control unit (10). The slip detection unit detects a slip of a target object gripped by a grip portion. The control unit controls a gripping force with which the grip portion grips the target object based on the slip detected by the slip detection unit. The control unit estimates an external force applied to the target object gripped by the grip portion based on the slip detected by the slip detection unit, and controls the gripping force based on the estimated external force.
