Robust 3D Vision for Autonomous Space Robotic Operations
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a model based vision system intended for satellite proximity operations. The system uses natural features on the satellite surfaces and three dimensional models of the satellites and docking interfaces, and it does not require any artificial markers or targets. The system processes images from stereo cameras to compute 3D data. The pose is determined using a fast version of an Iterative Closest Point algorithm. The system has been characterized under representative space-like conditions (illumination, material properties and trajectories) and proven to be robust to this environment.

Designing a Robust Control Scheme for Robotic Systems with an Adaptive Observer
This paper introduces a robust task-space control scheme for a robotic system with an adaptive observer. The proposed approach does not require the availability of the system states and an adaptive observer is developed to estimate the state variables. These estimated states are then used in the control scheme. First, the dynamic model of a robot is derived. Next, an observer-based robust contr...

The recent development of space flight ready 3D sensors, such as the Neptec Laser Camera System (LCS), allows 3D vision technology to be considered for autonomous missions. These active sensors provide their own illumination and have a small instantaneous field of view, making them immune to dynamic lighting. Harsh and dynamic lighting conditions have severely limited the use of 2D passive came...
