This paper proposes a coordinated control strategy for joint servo and visual servo to enable timely transfer and accurate gripping in the working area. Aiming at the issues of chattering and slow convergence of traditional sliding mode controller, a fast variable power reaching rate on the basis of the non-singular fast terminal sliding mode controller is proposed, which can effectively reduce the convergence time and chattering. For the purpose of addressing the problem that the traditional visual servo control method is sensitive to the environment, a visual servo controller based on integral sliding mode is proposed, to ensure the favorable positioning accuracy of the manipulator. Based on the two proposed controllers mentioned above, a coordinated control strategy is used to implement the control of the manipulator. Finally, the upper computer software is developed using the C# programming language to monitor the workstation. The feasibility of the above-mentioned method is verified through multiple simulations and experiments.展开更多

Precise interaction with objects in liquid environments is an important prerequisite and challenge for helical microrobots to perform various tasks. In this study, an automatic control method is proposed to realize the axial docking of helical microrobots with arbitrarily placed cylindrical objects in liquid environments. The docking process is divided into ascent, approach, alignment, and insertion stages. First, a 3D docking path is planned according to the positions and orientations of the microrobot and the target object. Second, a steering-based 3D path-following controller guides the helical microrobot to rise away from the container bottom and approach the target along the path. Third, based on path design with gravity compensation and steering output limits, alignment of position and orientation can be accomplished simultaneously. Finally, the helical microrobot completes the docking under the rotating magnetic field along the target orientation. Experiments verified the automatic docking of the helical microrobot with static targets, including connecting with micro-shafts and inserting into micro-tubes. The object grasping of a reconfigurable helical microrobot aided by 3D automatic docking was also demonstrated. This method enables precise docking of helical microrobots with objects, which might be used for capture and sampling, in vivo navigation control, and functional assembly of microrobots.展开更多

It consists of an intelligence and human-machine interface level, a motion planning level, a motion control level and a servo control level. The last three levels form a local real-time open robot controller, which realizes motion planning and motion control of a robot. A camera calibration method based on the relative movement of the end-effector connected to a robot is proposed and a method for tracking weld seam based on the structured light stereovision is provided. Combining the parameters of the cameras and laser plane, three groups of position values in Cartesian space are obtained for each feature point in a stripe projected on the weld seam. The accurate three-dimensional position of the edge points in the weld seam can be calculated from the obtained parameters with an information fusion algorithm. By calculating the weld seam parameter from position and image data, the movement parameters of the robot used for tracking can be determined. A swing welding experiment of type V groove weld is successfully conducted, the results of which show that the system has high resolution seam tracking in real-time, and works stably and efficiently.展开更多

Al- though a number of policy integration and sec- urity analysis mechanisms have been devel- oped, few focus on enabling the average ad- ministrator by providing an intuitive cognitive sense about the integrated policies, which considerably undermines the usability factor. In this paper we propose a visualization flame- work for inter-domain access control policy integration, which integrates Role Based Ac- cess Control (RBAC) policies on the basis of role-mapping and then visualizes the inte- grated result. The role mapping algorithm in the framework considers the hybrid role hier- archy. It can not only satisfy the security con- straints of non-cyclic inheritance and separa- tion of duty but also make visualization easier. The framework uses role-permission trees and semantic substrates to visualize the integrated policies. Through the interactive policy query visualization, the average administrator can gain an intuitive understanding of the policy integration result.展开更多

Methods: 100 cases of juvenile myopia treated in our hospital from December 2017 to December 2018 were divided into reference group and experimental group by lot, with 50 cases in each group. The reference group received medical optometry according to the reference requirements, and the experimental group received visual training on the basis of the reference group. The changes of ocular axis length of the two groups after the intervention and the adjustment lag of the two groups before and after the intervention were compared. Results: the length of ocular axis in the experimental group was lower than that in the reference group, and the comparison between the groups had statistical value (P < 0.05);In the comparison of adjustment lag, there was no difference between the two groups before intervention (P > 0.05);After the intervention, the experimental group was lower than the reference group, and there was significant difference between the groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion: in order to reduce juvenile myopia, visual training can delay the growth of ocular axis length, reduce the amount of adjustment lag and myopia, which is conducive to the healthy growth of adolescents.展开更多

文摘In this paper,a visual servoing approach is developed to capture the docking rings of tumbling non-cooperative satellites with a space manipulator.The primary challenge addressed is the potential for the docking ring to leave the monocular camera’s field-of-view as the manipulator approaches the target,due to the ring’s large size.To solve this issue,a two-phase visual servoing scheme combining a monocular camera and a three-line structured light vision system is proposed.In an effort to augment the success rate and safety of capture operations,several constraints are formulated,encompassing manipulator’s kinematics,monocular camera’s field-of-view,obstacle avoidance,structured light’s breakpoints and smooth capture.Subsequently,a nonlinear model predictive controller is proposed to manage these constraints in real-time and regulate the system.System models are established based on image moments and pose for each phase,selecting these features as visual feedback to simplify the formulation of servo constraints and avoid the complex circle-based pose measurement.Furthermore,to ensure unbiased predictions,the model disturbances arising from the imprecise estimation of target motion parameter are observed using an extended Kalman filter,which are then incorporated into the predictive control framework.The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of this scheme.
文摘Objective: to analyze the effect of visual training in the prevention and control of juvenile myopia. Methods: 100 cases of juvenile myopia treated in our hospital from December 2017 to December 2018 were divided into reference group and experimental group by lot, with 50 cases in each group. The reference group received medical optometry according to the reference requirements, and the experimental group received visual training on the basis of the reference group. The changes of ocular axis length of the two groups after the intervention and the adjustment lag of the two groups before and after the intervention were compared. Results: the length of ocular axis in the experimental group was lower than that in the reference group, and the comparison between the groups had statistical value (P < 0.05);In the comparison of adjustment lag, there was no difference between the two groups before intervention (P > 0.05);After the intervention, the experimental group was lower than the reference group, and there was significant difference between the groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion: in order to reduce juvenile myopia, visual training can delay the growth of ocular axis length, reduce the amount of adjustment lag and myopia, which is conducive to the healthy growth of adolescents.

文摘This paper presents a learning-based control framework for fast(<1.5 s)and accurate manipulation of a flexible object,i.e.,whip targeting.The framework consists of a motion planner learned or optimized by an algorithm,Online Impedance Adaptation Control(OIAC),a sim2real mechanism,and a visual feedback component.The experimental results show that a soft actor-critic algorithm outperforms three Deep Reinforcement Learning(DRL),a nonlinear optimization,and a genetic algorithm in learning generalization of motion planning.It can greatly reduce average learning trials(to<20 of others)and maximize average rewards(to>3 times of others).Besides,motion tracking errors are greatly reduced to 13.29 and 22.36 of constant impedance control by the OIAC of the proposed framework.In addition,the trajectory similarity between simulated and physical whips is 89.09.The presented framework provides a new method integrating data-driven and physics-based algorithms for controlling fast and accurate arm manipulation of a flexible object.
文摘Small video satellites have unique advantages of short development cycle,agile attitude maneuver,real-time video imaging.They have broad application prospects in space debris,faulty spacecraft,and other space target detection and tracking.However,when a space target first enters the camera’s visual field,it has a relatively large angular velocity relative to the satellite,which makes it easy to deviate from the visual field and cause off-target problems.This paper proposes a novel visual tracking control method based on potential function preventing missed targets in space.Firstly,a circular area in the image plane is designed as a mandatory restricted projection area of the target and a visual tracking controller based on image error.Then,a potential function is designed to ensure continuous and stable tracking of the target after entering the visual field.Finally,the stability of the control is proved using Barbarat’s lemma.By setting the same conditions and comparing with the simulation results of the proportion-derivative(PD)control method,the results show that when there is a large relative attitude motion angular velocity between the target and the satellite,the track-ing method based on potential function can ensure that the tar-get does not deviate from the field-of-view during the tracking control process,and the projection of target is controlled to the desired position.The proposed control method is effective in eliminating tracking error and preventing off-target simultane-ously.
