Range and Pose Estimation for Visual Servoing of a Mobile Robot
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the implementation of behaviour for real-time visual servoing on a mobile robot. The behaviour is a component of a multi-robot cleaning system developed in the context of our investigation into architectures for cooperative systems. An important feature for support of cooperation is the awareness of one robot by another, which this behaviour realises. Robust feature tracking aided by a hardware vision system is described. This forms the basis for range and pose estimation using a 3D projective model.

Simulation of Position Based Visual Control and Performance Tests of 6R Robot
This paper presents simulation and experimental results of position-based visual servoing control process of a 6R robot using 2 fixed cameras. This method has the ability to deal with real time changes in the relative position of the target-object with respect to robot. Also, greater accuracy and independency of servo control structure from the target pose coordinates are the additional advanta...
متن کاملOn-Board Vision Using Visual-Servoing for RoboCup F-180 League Mobile Robots
In the RoboCup F-180 league competition, vision is predominantly provided by an overhead camera which relays a global view of the field. There are inherent disadvantages in utilising this system, particularly the delays associated with the capture, transmission and processing of vision data. To minimise these delays and to equip the robots with greater autonomy, visual servoing on-board the ind...
متن کاملA New Approach to Self-Localization for Mobile Robots Using Sensor Data Fusion
This paper proposes a new approach for calibration of dead reckoning process. Using the well-known UMBmark (University of Michigan Benchmark) is not sufficient for a desirable calibration of dead reckoning. Besides, existing calibration methods usually require explicit measurement of actual motion of the robot. Some recent methods use the smart encoder trailer or long range finder sensors such ...
متن کاملReduction of Odometry Error in a two Wheeled Differential Drive Robot (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Pose estimation is one of the vital issues in mobile robot navigation. Odometry data can be fused with absolute position measurements to provide better and more reliable pose estimation. This paper deals with the determination of better relative localization of a two wheeled differential drive robot by means of odometry by considering the influence of parameters namely weight, velocity, wheel p...
متن کاملVirtual Visual Servoing for Real-Time Robot Pose Estimation
We propose a system for markerless pose estimation and tracking of a robot manipulator. By tracking the manipulator, we can obtain an accurate estimate of its position and orientation necessary in many object grasping and manipulation tasks. Tracking the manipulator allows also for better collision avoidance. The method is based on the notion of virtual visual servoing. We also propose the use ...
