In this paper, a method to combine visual and force information using the
information obtained from the movement flow-based visual servoing system is proposed. This
method allows not only to achieve a given desired position but also to specify the…

This paper presents an interactive computer simulator that can be used in the
field of practical training in Robotics. The tool can provide basic training for workers as
well as increase their knowledge about robotic concepts. The application offers a…

This paper describes an adaptive and autocalibrated method to track surfaces. To do so, a non time
dependent impedance control system is proposed. This method fuses visual and force information to track a
given trajectory maintaining the contact with the…

Sometimes, the presence of objects difficult the observation of other neighboring objects. This is because
part of the surface of an object occludes partially the surface of another, increasing the complexitiy in the
recognition process. Therefore, the information which is…

An automatic disassembly cell requires of a
computer vision system for recognition and localization of
the products and each of theirs components. The detection
of occlusions adds more information to the knowledge base
to identify components and products, and generate…

Virtual laboratories offer many advantages for the teaching of technological subjects, such as flexibility in time-tables and
student access to expensive and limited equipment. However, it is also important to evaluate the acceptability of such
laboratories by the students and…

Web-based learning environments are becoming increasingly popular in higher education. One of the most important web-learning resources is the virtual laboratory (VL), which gives students an easy way for training and learning through the Internet. Moreover, on-line collaborative communication represents…
