| Abstract: | Platforms like gantries, booms, aircrafts, and submersibles
are often used in the broadcasting industry. To avoid
collisions and occlusions, such mechatronic platforms often possess
redundant degrees-of-freedom (DOFs). As a result, manual
manipulating of such platforms demands much skill. This paper
describes the implementation of several controllers that, by using
computer vision, attempts to reduce the number of manually manipulated
DOFs. Experiments were performed to assess the performance
of each controller. A model for such a system was developed
and validated. To determine how the visual servoing can improve
the tracking, a novice operator and an expert were asked to manually
track a moving target with the assistance of visual servoing.
The results of these tests were analyzed and compared. |
