A Note on Principal Point Estimability
We provide elementary geometric arguments to show that the principal point of cameras with small to moderate field of view cannot be reliably estimated from natural, noisy images ...

A position-based visual servoing scheme for following paths with nonholonomic mobile robots
Abstract— We present a visual servoing scheme enabling nonholonomic mobile robots with a fixed pinhole camera to reach and follow a continuous path on the ground. The controller...
