Abstract :
A method for object manipulation using an active camera is introduced. By actively moving the camera to proper positions with desired viewing angle from objects of interest, it is possible to acquire data to realize the robust visual feedback control of a robot. This approach avoids complicated 3-D modeling, and the image processing carried out is driven by tasks. Active camera control for robot guidance and image understanding is addressed
