Adaptive visual servoing and force control fusion to track surfaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes an adaptive and autocalibrated method to track surfaces. To do so, a non time dependent impedance control system is proposed. This method fuses visual and force information to track a given trajectory maintaining the contact with the surface. The main contribution of the visual servoing approach employed by the impedance control system is the possibility of carrying out the tracking of the trajectory, avoiding time restrictions and without previous knowledge of the intrinsic parameters employed. An adaptive stochastic approach is defined to increase or decrease the tracking speed depending on the impedance control system behaviour. Key-Words: Impedance control, Force control, Image based control, visual servoing, adaptive control, Sensor fusion

Impedance control for fusing multisensorial systems in robotic manipulation tasks
In this paper an impedance control scheme is described in order to allow the joint use of visual and force information for controlling a robot during the tracking of a surface. A visual servoing system is employed for following a trajectory in the image space. The impedance control modifies the trajectory obtained from the visual servoing system allowing the system to maintain a constant force ...
متن کاملVisual 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...
متن کاملHybrid Adaptive Vision - Force Control for Robot Manipulators Interacting with Unknown Surfaces
A hybrid control scheme based on adaptive visual servoing and direct force control is proposed for robot manipulators to perform interaction tasks on smooth surfaces. The camera parameters, as well as the constraint surface, are considered to be uncertain. A fixed camera with optical axis non-perpendicular to the robot workspace is used for position control, while a force sensor mounted on the ...
متن کاملAdaptive hybrid visual servoing/force control in unknown environment
This paper describes an adaptive hybrid visual servoing/force controller to realize visual servoing while the manipulator exerts contract force on a surface. The proposed controller has a hybrid structure of visual servoing control and force control. Because it has an on-line estimator for the parameters of the cameramanipulator system and the one for the parameters of the unknown constraint su...
متن کاملAdaptive visual-force control in unknown workspaces
This paper proposes the definition of a new adaptive system that combines visual and force information. At each moment, the proportion of information used from each sensor is variable depending on the adequacy of each sensor to control the task. The sensorial information obtained is processed to allow the use of both sensors for controlling the robot and avoiding situations in which the control...
