1 Robotic Visual Servoing Overview Robotic Visual Servoing Problem : guide a robot to a given target based on visual sensing of the environment & RTX robot control in Matlab Advanced Vision Lecture 12 toby.breckon@ed.ac.uk Computer Vision Lab. Institute for Perception, Action & Behaviour School of Informatics Solution : closed loop visual control (sub problem : noise) RTX Robot Control 1 RTX Robot Control 2 RTX control in Matlab Robotic Visual Servoing Reminder Example : placing tool tip on target point Goal state : tool tip to target distance 0 State error : distance of tool tip to target distance Joint level control Algorithm : Estimate state error = tool tip to target distance (in 2D image) while (state error > T pixels) specify absolute gripper / joint positions relative gripper / joint movements use special Matlab command interface estimate Jacobean compute joint movement angles (in 3D world) move robot joints fraction of movement angles (in 3D world) re estimate state error = tool tip to target distance (in 2D image) RTX Robot Control 3 software available from course web page level of control specify pose of gripper tip in robotic work cell (world co ordinates of robot) (5 d.o.f arm) software will resolve pose as set of joint movements RTX Robot Control 4

2 RTX robot Matlab Interface Linux OS Platform MATLAB FIFO FIFO Working with the RTX Robots Monitor (Background Process) RS 232 Serial Link To initialize the robot for use: connect to PC with serial cable twist emergency stop button to release power on RTX (wall + lower switches) push green button (upper switch) stand clear! in working directory enter./rtx.sh Monitor program handles Matlab RTX comms. RTX Robot Control 5 need software copied to current directory starts monitor, matlab and calibrates RTX (~2 min.) when ready, awaits matlab commands RTX Robot Control 6 RTX Setup Lower Switch RTX Command Overview Upper Switches (on/off 1/0) (on/off green/red) [X,Y,Z,YW,P,R] = command(...) Emergency Stop Side panel of RTX Serial Port RTX commands of the form: Linux PC RTX Robot Control 7 X : gripper X position Y : gripper Y position Z : gripper Z position YW : gripper yaw angle P : gripper pitch angle R : gripper roll angle RTX Robot Control 8

3 RTX Absolute Motion RTX Relative Motion Requirement : position gripper at point (x,y,z)' Requirement : position gripper relative to current position in terms of (x,y,z) and/or yaw/pitch/roll specified in world co ordinates abs_position_rtx(ta,tp,x,y,z,yw,p,r) moves gripper to position given by: X,Y,Z,Y,P,R Ta allowable angular error after movement Tp allowable position error after movement rel_position_rtx(ta,tp,dx,dy,dz,dyw,dp,dr) increments gripper position by given offset rel_angle_rtx(ta,tp,del,dsh,dz,dy,dp,dr) abs_angle_rtx(ta,tp,el,sh,z,y,p,r) sets joints to given parameters increments joint parameters by given value (more complex,not recommed here) RTX Robot Control 9 RTX Robot Control 10 RTX Gripper Control RTX Standard Positions open_grippers_rtx(gap) opens pinch gripper to Gap" mm Standard Home Position for RTX rtx_home() close_grippers_rtx() close completely (beware of crushing objects!) RTX stowed position rtx_exit() always use when finished RTX Robot Control 11 RTX Robot Control 12
