Research field

  • Visual servoing : vision-based control of a dynamic system

  • Modeling:

  • Control law:

  • Usually, highly nonlinear and coupled

  • potential problems

  • Objective: cook so that is as linear as possible



Objectives

  • Modeling visual features

    • for usual cameras (perspective projection)
    • for omni-directional cameras
    • for 2D ultrasound images
  • Considering high level tasks in complex environments

    • Robot navigation
    • Additional constraints (occlusions, joint limits avoidance, etc.)
  • Visual tracking

    • real-time
    • accurate for 6 dof
    • robust
    • mono-object
    • geometrical structure


Application fields

  • Robotics

    • Manipulating/grasping objects, target tracking
    • Nuclear/submarine/space/medical, etc.
    • Eye-in-hand/eye-to-hand systems
    • Robot arms, mobile robots, UAV
  • Augmented reality

    • Insert virtual objects in real images
  • Virtual reality

  • Cogniscience



Experimental platforms

  • Eye-in-hand, eye-to hand systems, mobile robot, medical robot

  • Experimental validation, tests before transfer, demonstrations

  • Experimental results very time consuming

  • (same image never acquired, and useless after 40 ms)



Recent contributions



Modeling image moments

  • Determination of the analytical form of the interaction matrix for any moment

  • Determination of combinations of moments (from invariants) for decoupling and linearizing properties



Visual servoing from ultrasound images

  • Modeling features

    • No observation outside B-scan corresponding to the current 2D ultrasound image
  • Automation of spatial calibration procedure

    • Adaptive visual servoing to position B-scan on a cross-wire phantom
  • Robotized 3D «free-hand» ultrasound imaging

    • Conventional 2D ultrasound probe moved by a medical robot
    • Thanks to calibration step, B-Scans positioned in a 3D reference frame (collaboration with Visages)
  • Application field: remote examination



Navigation from an image database

  • Appearance-based representation

    • Topological description of the environment with key images (no 3D reconstruction)
    • Image path retrieval from indexing techniques (collaboration with Texmex)
  • Qualitative visual servoing

    • Navigation expressed as visual features to be seen (and not successive poses to be reached)
    • Confident interval for features
    • Automatic update of features used for navigation (by imposing a progress within the visibility corridor)


Tasks sequencing

  • Idea : to give as much freedom as possible to take constraints (joint limits, occlusions, obstacles) into account

  • Redundancy framework revisited:

    • directional redundancy
    • non linear projection operator to increase the free space where secondary tasks are applied
  • Visual elementary task managed by a stack

    • Remove the good task for ensuring the constraints
    • Put the task back when possible


3D model-based tracking

  • Virtual visual servoing scheme for pose computation

    • Virtually moves a camera so that the projection of the 3D model of the object corresponds to the observed image
    • Statistically robust pose estimation to deal with outliers and occlusions (M-estimation)
    • Real-time capabilities
  • Application to visual servoing and augmented reality

  • Extension to articulated object tracking



Texture and contours-based tracking

  • 2D model-based tracking

  • 3D model-based tracking

    • Introducing spatio-temporal constraints in model-based tracking
    • Joint estimation of pose and displacement

Evolution wrt. past objectives

  • From the 2001 Vista evaluation experts report: “Vista is planning to split off its activities in visual servoing and active vision as a separate project. This is an excellent decision”

  • Evolution wrt. scientific objectives: 80 % well done

    • Complex objects of unknown shape: image moments
