Design and implementation of a visual servo system

Robot visual servo system has an important status in robotic research and application, also has a decisive influence on robot intelligence. According to robotic kinematics and dynamics, the method of visual servo controller based on position is adopted in this paper. Binocular camera stereo vision technology and a kind of real-time control card Q8 based on MATLAB are used in motion control. The paper describes the control structure, hardware, software, designs a visual servo system platform and implements the real-time mission that track, capture or access moving targets on the platform.
