visual servo control
A feedback system where cameras continuously monitor the position of a target, and this visual information is used to guide the robot’s movements in real-time. The robot constantly adjusts its arm position based on what its cameras see.
Visual servo control is a feedback control system where cameras continuously monitor a target or scene, and visual information is processed in real-time to guide the robot's movements. The robot adjusts its end-effector position, orientation, or gaze based on what it sees, closing the loop through computer vision rather than proprioceptive sensors alone. This approach is powerful for tasks where precision positioning, target tracking, or visual alignment is critical.
Simple idea: The robot uses its eyes (cameras) to continuously correct its movements—like reaching for a moving object while watching your hand.
