Direct visual servoing (DVS) uses raw pixel intensities to control robot motion, yielding high accuracy at convergence. However, the associated photometric cost function is highly nonconvex, which leads to a narrow domain of convergence due to local minima. This work addresses that issue by adapting…
It is well established that wide field of view cameras, as well as using the whole photometric information contained in images, offer many advantages for visual servoing. Therefore, we propose to extend the photometric visual servoing to full spherical cameras. More precisely, we are dealing with 36
In many cases, soft and continuum robots represent an interesting alternative to articulated robots because they have the advantages of miniaturization capability, safer interactions with humans and often simpler fabricating and integration. However, these benefits are usually considered to arise at
