An onboard-eye-to-hand visual servo and task coordination control for aerial manipulator based on a spherical model*

Ningbin Lai et al.

Summary: In this paper, an onboard-eye-to-hand visual servo and task coordination control strategy is proposed for the aerial manipulator to enhance the accurate manipulation and flight stability. By establishing an error equation and adopting a multi-task coordinated control scheme, the aerial manipulator achieves precise positioning and grasping, and the stability of the closed-loop system is analyzed using the Lyapunov method.

Leader-Follower Trajectory Control for Quadrotors via Tracking Differentiators and Disturbance Observers

Hongjiu Yang et al.

Summary: This paper investigates trajectory tracking controller and position controller for leader-follower trajectory control of quadrotors. A tracking differentiator is designed to generate speed signals, and a nonlinear disturbance observer is used based on state errors. A saturation law with anti-trigonometric functions is adopted in the position controller. Experiment results demonstrate the applicability of the proposed method for quadrotors.

Image-Based Visual Servoing of Rotorcrafts to Planar Visual Targets of Arbitrary Orientation

Jianan Li et al.

Summary: This letter introduces how to use the image-based visual servoing scheme to enable an underactuated rotorcraft UAV to regulate its translational motion and heading relative to a planar visual target. The conversion from real camera images to virtual camera images and the use of a simple and decoupled interaction matrix structure achieve satisfactory trajectory control of UAVs.
