Impedance-Based Smoothing for Visual Servoing along Edges

Kurzfassung

In contrast to explicit sensor-based control where the goal is to minimize the differnce between sensed and desired sensor values, impedancebased control also considers the required accelerations and thus smoothes robot motion. Two approaches to impedance control are developed and applied to the sensor-based method in [1] which uses predictive control to track unknown contours at high speed. With the impedance approach the contour is not more required to be smooth.
