In this paper, we address the problem of visually guiding and controlling a robot in projective three-space using stereo vision. As the proposed method is entirely formulated in pr...
Abstract-- This paper proposes a novel framework for describing articulated robot kinematics motion with the goal of providing a unified representation by combining symbolic or qua...
