    Visual servoing with nonlinear observer

    Get PDF
    Visual servo system is a robot control system which incorporates the vision sensor in the feedback loop. Since the robot controller is also in the visual servo loop, compensation of the robot dynamics is important for high speed tasks. Moreover estimation of the object motion is necessary for real time tracking because the visual information includes considerable delay. This paper proposes a nonlinear model-based controller and a nonlinear observer for visual servoing. The observer estimates the object motion and the nonlinear controller makes the closed loop system asymptotically stable based on the estimated object motion. The effectiveness of the observer-based controller is verified by simulations and experiments on a two link planar direct drive robot</p

    Visual servoing with hand-eye manipulator-optimal control approach

    This paper proposes a control theoretic formulation and a controller design method for the feature-based visual servoing with redundant features. The linear time-invariant (LTI) formulation copes with the redundant features and provides a simple framework for controller design. The proposed linear quadratic (LQ) method can deal with the redundant features, which is important because the previous LQ methods are not applicable to redundant systems. Moreover, this LQ method gives flexibility for performance improvement instead of the very limited design parameters provided by the generalized inverse and task function controllers. Validity of the LTI model and effectiveness and flexibility of the LQ optimal controller are evaluated by real-time experiments on a PUMA 560 manipulator</p
