We present a novel on-line approach for extrinsic robot-camera calibration, a process often referred to as hand-eye calibration, that uses object pose estimates from a real-time model-based tracking approach. While off-line calibration has seen much progress recently due to the incorporation of bund
In this work we propose a sliding mode controller for in-hand manipulation that repositions a tool in the robot's hand by using gravity and controlling the slippage of the tool. In our approach, the robot holds the tool with a pinch grasp and we model the system as a link attached to the gripper via…
We propose a novel approach for real-time object pose detection and tracking that is highly scalable in terms of the number of objects tracked and the number of cameras observing the scene. Key to this scalability is a high degree of parallelism in the algorithms employed. The method maintains a sin…
