Abstract

An experimental validation of some visual control schemes for the relative positioning of a robot camera with respect to an object is presented. The schemes are based on the bi-dimensional appearance of objects in the image plane. The proposed approach allows the design of both reactive control strategies, such as fixation of a moving object, and/or active control strategies, such as the positioning of the camera in a desired location with respect to a moving object.
