Vision Servo System for High-Voltage-Live-Working Robot

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper presents a vision servo system for high-voltage-live-working robot, which consists of image acquisition subsystem, image processing subsystem and robot control subsystem. It uses binocular stereo camera which mounted on the hand of robot to get the image of the working scene, and then uses binocular stereo vision algorithms together with target tracking algorithm to get the 3-Dimensions information of the power equipment. The robot control subsystem receives the 3-Dimensions information, and then guide the robot moving to the target location to implement the high-voltage-work. The proposed system can implement the high-voltage-work without Human involvement and improve works level of automation and efficiency.
