This article provides a tutorial introduction to visual servo control of robotic manipulators.
Since the topic spans many disciplines our goal is limited to providing a basic conceptual …

This article is the second of a two-part tutorial on visual servo control. In this tutorial, we have
only considered velocity controllers. It is convenient for most of classical robot arms …

Color-based trackers recently proposed in [3, 4, 5] have been proved robust and versatile for
a modest computational cost. They are especially appealing for tracking tasks where the …

We propose an approach to vision-based robot control, called 2 1/2 D visual servoing, which
avoids the respective drawbacks of classical position-based and image-based visual …

As an object moves through the field of view of a camera, the images of the object may
change dramatically. This is not simply due to the translation of the object across the image …

Passivity is an input–output property of dynamical systems. The concept generalizes
physical systems that cannot store more energy than the energy supplied from outside the …
