Potential Switching Control in Visual Servo

Potential Switching Control in Visual Servo

Stability of feature-based visual seruo controllers proposed so far is local.' The initial features far from the reference may converge to features diflemnt from the reference or even worse they may not converge. In this paper, stability of feature-based visual servo is considered by using potential. The stable region is visualized and artificial potential switching is proposed to extend the st...

A Switching Approach to Visual Servo Control

In the recent past, many researchers have developed control algorithms for visual servo applications. In this paper, we introduce a new switching approach, in which a high-level decision maker determines which of two lowlevel visual servo controllers should be used at each control cycle. We introduce two new low-level controllers, one that relies on the homography between initial and goal image...

Adaptive Visual Servo Control

Adaptive servo visual robot control

Adaptive controllers for robot positioning and tracking using direct visual feedback with camera-in-hand configuration are proposed in this paper. The controllers are designed to compensate for full robot dynamics. Adaptation is introduced to reduce the design sensitivity due to robot and payload dynamics uncertainties. It is proved that the control system achieves the motion control objective ...

Performance Tests for Visual Servo Control Systems, with Application to Partitioned Approaches to Visual Servo Control

Visual servoing has been a viable method of robot manipulator control for more than a decade. Initial developments involved position-based visual servoing (PBVS), in which the control signal exists in Cartesian space. The younger method, image-based visual servoing (IBVS), has seen considerable development in recent years. PBVS and IBVS offer tradeoffs in performance, and neither can solve all ...
