Visual Servoing Utilizing Zoom Mechanism
نویسندگان
چکیده
A camera, which is used as an artificial vision in visual servoing control, often has a zoom mechanism. A zoom mechanism cannot realize fast motion while an arm mechanism can, and it has only one degree of freedom. On the other hand the arm mechanism cannot cover wide range of change of images while the zoom mechanism can. In this paper, we propose a complementary visual servoing controller of zoom and arm mechanisms. First we discuss on the condition that camera position and zoom setting are considered as redundant. Then a visual servoing controller is proposed making use of complementary characteristics of the both mechanisms. To show the effectiveness of the proposed controller, experimental results are shown.

Depth Adaptive Zooming Visual Servoing for a Robot with a Zooming Camera
To solve the view visibility problem and keep the observed object in the field of view (FOV) during the visual servoing, a depth adaptive zooming visual servoing strategy for a manipulator robot with a zooming camera is proposed. Firstly, a zoom control mechanism is introduced into the robot visual servoing system. It can dynamically adjust the camera’s field of view to ...
متن کاملVisual Servoing under Changing Illumination Conditions
Visual servoing, or the control of motion on the basis of image analysis in a closed loop, is more and more recognized as an important tool in modern robotics. In this paper, we present a new model-driven approach to derive a description of the motion of a target object. This method can be subdivided into an illumination invariant target detection stage and a servoing process which uses an adap...

This paper concerns the visual servoing with a zooming camera. It presents a new visual servoing approach which allows to position a camera, equipped with a motorized zoom lens, with respect to an object independently if the object is planar or not. Indeed, planar objects are singular cases which cannot be handled by previous intrinsics-free visual servoing. The proposed method makes it possibl...

In this paper, visual perception of frontal view in intelligent cars is considered. A Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) camera is used to track preceding vehicles. The aim of this work is to keep the rear view image of the target vehicle stable in scale and position. An efficient real time tracking algorithm is integrated. It is a generic and robust approach, particularly well suited for the detection of sca...
