چکیده

This paper describes experiments in estimation and control of the fixation point with a 10 degree of freedom head-neck-body system. A system has been constructed which uses standard kinematic techniques to estimate the fixation point. Two approaches have been investigated to control the fixation point: 3D kinematic estimation and 2D visual servoing. Kinematics is shown to be efficient provided that there is a sufficiently precise model of the kinematic chain. In particular, large errors in the kinematic model can cause the system to oscillate. In contrast, visual servoing is extremely robust with respect to errors in the kinematic model, but require a much larger (factor of 10) number of cycles to converge. The two approaches are found to be complementary. Kinematics can be used to perform a ballistic saccade to the fixation point, while visual servoing serves to correct small errors with a “micro-saccade”. This approach mimics saccadic control found in the human visual system.

Visual Tracking using Kernel Projected Measurement and Log-Polar Transformation

Visual Servoing is generally contained of control and feature tracking. Study of previous methods shows that no attempt has been made to optimize these two parts together. In kernel based visual servoing method, the main objective is to combine and optimize these two parts together and to make an entire control loop. This main target is accomplished by using Lyapanov theory. A Lyapanov candidat...

Visual Torch Position Control Using Fuzzy-Servoing Controller for Arc Welding Process

In this paper, we propose a fuzzy-servoing controller method for automatic welding. The proposed method uses a vision based arc tracking to find the initial points of the weld seam and to track them without a prior knowledge. Due to a serious melt down in the weld pool during the welding process, the method requires to control the welding torch in two directions, up-down and left-right directio...

Evolving Inverse Fuzzy Models for Uncalibrated Visual Servoing in 3D Workspace

In this paper, evolving inverse fuzzy models obtained online for uncalibrated visual servoing in 3D workspace, are developed and validated in a six degrees of freedom robotic manipulator. This approach will recursively update the inverse fuzzy model based only on measurements at a given time instant. The uncalibrated approach does not require calibrated kinematic and camera models, as needed in...
