—Calibration techniques allow the estimation of the intrinsic parameters of a camera. This paper describes an adaptive visual servoing scheme which employs the visual data measur...
— Most robotic vision algorithms are proposed by envisaging robots operating in structured environments where the world is assumed to be rigid. These algorithms fail to provide o...
— In this paper, we propose an original approach to control camera position and/or lighting conditions in an environment using image gradient information. Our goal is to ensure a...
Abstract— A new control type for stick-slip microsystems is proposed in this paper: the voltage/frequency (U/f) proportional control. It gives a best resolution relatively to the...
—In this paper we present the design of a swallowable (11mm diameter by 25mm long), 12-legged endoscopic capsule for locomotion in the lower gastro intestinal tract (large bowel)...

— Skid-steered mobile robots have been widely used for terrain exploration and navigation. In this paper, we present an adaptive trajectory control design for a skid-steered whee...
— In this paper we present an observability analysis for a mobile robot performing SLAM with a single monocular camera. The aim is to get a better understanding of the well known...
