A practical grasp synthesis system is required to generate a diverse set of 6-DoF grasps from which a task-relevant grasp can be executed. Although generative models are suitable for learning such complex data distributions, existing models have limitations in grasp quality, long training times, and a lack of flexibility for task-specific generation. In this work, we present GraspLDM, a modular generative framework for 6-DoF grasp synthesis that uses diffusion models as priors in the latent space of a VAE. GraspLDM learns a generative model of object-centric $SE(3)$ grasp poses conditioned on point clouds. GraspLDM architecture enables us to train task-specific models efficiently by only re-training a small denoising network in the low-dimensional latent space, as opposed to existing models that need expensive re-training. Our framework provides robust and scalable models on both full and partial point clouds. GraspLDM models trained with simulation data transfer well to the real world without any further fine-tuning. Our models provide an 80% success rate for 80 grasp attempts of diverse test objects across two real-world robotic setups.
