Dynamic 3D Vision : The Visually Controlled Robot

  • Chapter
Book cover Contributions to Autonomous Mobile Systems

Part of the book series: Advances in Control Systems and Signal Processing ((ACSSP,volume 7))

Abstract

In this chapter we are interested in how the concepts of chapter 3 may be utilized for the purpose of robot control in closed visual loop. Specifically, we are interested in formulating a control strategy that is suitable for controlling the movements of a robot relative to relevant objects in its environment. This is obvious, since achieving some degree of “autonomy” for a mobile agent (robot) includes achieving some capabilities for situation-dependent movement-behaviour. In many cases, this can be done best by exploiting information from visual sensors.
