ObstaDiff is a diffusion-policy framework that introduces a lightweight obstacle-aware visual encoder to generate structured representations of targets, obstacles, and background. By aligning these representations, the policy produces end-effector trajectories that focus on a target-centered bottleneck pose while accounting for surrounding obstacles. In real-robot greenhouse trials, ObstaDiff achieved a 75.41% task success rate and an 8.20% obstacle collision rate, outperforming existing imitation-learning baselines in cluttered agricultural settings.
