Hand-Eye Coordination Using Active Stereo Camera

This paper describes an approach t o control the robot arm using active stereo camera system. The proposed handeye system is able t o achieve high accuracy without drastically reducing the workspace size. A new qualitative a p proach t o control the robot arm is developed. It computes the relative depth between two points from a pair of stereo image. By incorporating this attribute into the ima...

Shadow Gestures: 3D Hand Pose Estimation Using a Single Camera

This paper describes a system that uses a camera and a point light source to track a user's hand in three dimensions. Using depth cues obtained from projections of the hand and its shadow, the system computes the 3D position and orientation of two ngers (thumb and pointing nger). The system recognizes one dynamic and two static gestures. Recognition and pose estimation are user independent and ...

Dynamic Visual Servoing with an Uncalibrated Eye-in-hand Camera

Visual servoing is an approach to control motion of a robot manipulator using visual feedback signals from a vision system. Though the first systems date back to the late 1970s and early 1980s, it is not until the middle 1990s that there is a sharp increase in publications and working systems, due to the availability of fast and affordable vision processing systems (Hutchinson et al, 1996). The...

Next best view estimation with eye in hand camera

In this work we are interested in automatic data acquisition using a high dimensional robotics arm equipped with a camera system. We want to iteratively estimate new view points that maximizes a reward function and simultaneously optimize the trajectory to reach the new view point given a second reward function. For many robotic systems automated data acquisition is important to detect objects,...
