Everything about Visual servoing

Robot control by visual feedback

Visual servoing, also known as vision-based robot control and abbreviated VS, is a technique which uses feedback information extracted from a vision sensor to control the motion of a robot. One of the earliest papers that talks about visual servoing was from the SRI International Labs in 1979. Wikipedia →
