Robust visual servoing based Chinese calligraphy on a humanoid robot

A robust visual servoing system is investigated on a humanoid robot which grasps a brush in Chinese calligraphy task.The system is implemented based on uncalibrated visual servoing controller utilizing Kalman-Bucy filter, with the help of an object detector by continuously adaptive MeanShift ( CAMShift) algorithm.Under this control scheme, a humanoid robot can satisfactorily grasp a brush without system modeling.The proposed method is shown to be robust and effective through a Chinese calligraphy task on a NAO robot.
