Abstract :
This paper describes the vision-based robotic control (VBRC) experiments executed on the Japanese research satellite ETS-VII. The VBRC experiments were designed to enhance image quality, refine calibration of different system components, facilitate robot-operation by automatically refining the robot-pose and provide data for robot-calibration
