Visual Servoing: Path Interpolation by Homography Decomposition
نویسندگان
چکیده
In order to successfully perform visual servoing of robot manipulators the control algorithm must account for the physical limitations of the manipulator. These constraints de ne the robot workspace boundary. Any visual servoing control algorithm must avoid this boundary if stability of motion is to be ensured. In this paper, a method is developed by which a desired object path can be interpolated between two arbitrary object poses based on image feature extraction. This path is de ned to be a continuous change in object pose between the initial and nal desired poses which avoids the workspace boundary. The development of this method involves the parameterization of the 2-D displacement transformation or homography. By decomposing this homography a set of object path poses can be interpolated in either the image plane or reconstructed in the 3-D workspace. Implementation of a visual servoing procedure con rms the validity of the interpolated path with respect to workspace boundary avoidance.

Visual Trajectories from Uncalibrated Images
This paper proposes a methodological framework for trajectory generation in projective space. The framework enables trajectories that respect rigidity constraints of structure and motion, that are furthermore uniform and optimal in terms of Euclidean conngura-tion, eventhough no camera calibration is assumed. In a projective reconstruction of the scene, obtained e.g. from an uncalibrated stereo...
متن کاملShortest Path Homography-Based Visual Control for Differential Drive Robots
It is generally accepted that machine vision is one of the most important sensory modalities for navigation purposes. Visual control, also called visual servoing, is a very extensive and mature field of research where many important contributions have been presented in the last decade [Malis et al.,1999, Corke and Hutchinson, 2001, Conticelli and Allotta, 2001, Tsakiris et al., 1998, Ma et al.,...
متن کاملStabilization of a class of underactuated vehicles with uncertain position measurements and application to visual servoing
Stabilization of a class of underactuated vehicles with uncertain measurements of the position tracking error is addressed. Nonlinear feedback laws ensuring semi-global stability for a large class of uncertainties on these measurements are derived based on properties of saturated controls. Practical relevance of the proposed results is illustrated by two application examples for Vertical Take-O...
متن کاملHomography-based 2D Visual Tracking and Servoing
The objective of this paper is to propose a new homography-based approach to image-based visual tracking and servoing. The visual tracking algorithm proposed in the paper is based on a new efficient second-order minimization method. Theoretical analysis and comparative experiments with other tracking approaches show that the proposed method has a higher convergence rate than standard first-orde...
متن کاملSwitched visual servo control of nonholonomic mobile robots with field-of-view constraints based on homography
This paper presents a novel scheme for visual servoing of a nonholonomic mobile robot equipped with a monocular camera in consideration of field-of-view (FOV) constraints. In order to loosen the FOV constraints, the system states are expressed by the homography between the current frame and the key frame so that the target is not necessarily to be always visible in the control process. A switch...
