Open Platform for Real-time Robotic Visual Servoing

چکیده
This paper presents an open platform to design, simulate and test robotic image-based visual servoing systems using off-the-shelf commercial cameras and standard personal computers. First a set of simulation files for Matlab is introduced and then a real-time toolkit for visual servoing is presented. The latter makes extensive use of separate threads and multiprocess computing to support the image and video interfaces as well as the network backbone link between each computer in the system. These toolkits are used to design an eye-in-hand image-based visual servoing system for real-time tracking in the TQ MA2000 robot which exhibits high backlash and low resolution. Simulation and real-time results are documented in the paper. An overview of the functions included in the real-time toolkit is also provided

Real-time Visual Servoing
This paper describes a new real-time tracking algorithm in conjunction with a predictive filter to allow real-time visual servoing of a robotic arm that is following a moving object. The system consists of two calibrated (but unregistered) cameras that provide images to a real-time, pipelined-parallel optic-flow algorithm that can robustly compute optic-flow and calculate the 3-D position of a ...
متن کاملPosition Based Visual Servoing control of a Wheelchair Mounter Robotic Arm using Parallel Tracking and Mapping of task objects
In the last few years power wheelchairs have been becoming the only device able to provide autonomy and independence to people with motor skill impairments. In particular, many power wheelchairs feature robotic arms for gesture emulation, like the interaction with objects. However, complex robotic arms often require a joystick to be controlled; this feature make the arm hard to be controlled by...

متن کاملOn the use of linear camera-object interaction models in visual servoing
We investigate the exploitation of linear models of cameraobject interaction for an efficient modeling and control of image-based visual servoing systems. The approach includes a method for coping with those representation ambiguities typical of linear interaction models which may affect both planning and control. The implementation of an eye-in-hand servoing system based on affine camera model...
