In this paper, a novel approach to visual servo control robotic systems is proposed. It is focused on developing a solution using 3D point features without recovering the rigid object’s pose. Pose-free motion is achieved using motion parameterization techniques based on dual numbers and dual vectors. Considering an imposed velocity field over the motion of the 3D point features ensemble, this work proposes a close-form solution to a visual servoing problem. The solution provides stable motion control while preserving the image features in the field of view. However, when some point features leave the field of view, their contribution to the control law is dropped without losing stability. The proposed solution is easy to tune and implement. Various scenarios are used in simulations and real experiments to show how the proposed solution overcomes classic servoing problems.

control design for marine autonomous vehicles is a subject of great interest in the control systems. These vehicles are strongly non linear and show complex hydrodynamics effects that make difficult the control design. Besides, the use of underactuated vehicles is very important for different reasons like simplicity, cost, efficiency, etc, so these vehicles and their use for collaborative tasks are main topics of investigation. A non linear control for path following for USVs is presented in this work with an infrastructure capable of performing multiple AUV and ROV in collaborative tasks. So this control law and this infrastructure will be used in future projects for formation control of USVs.

Scale-free network and consensus among multiple agents have both drawn quite much attention. To investigate the consensus speed over scale-free networks is the main topic in this paper. Given a set of different values for the power-law distribution parameter γ, and a set of different values for the minimum degree ( d min ) for the nodes, the algebraic connectivity (λ 2 ) of the network topology is studied, as well as the time ( t c ) (or iteration ( k c ), for discrete algorithm) taken to reach consensus. The results exhibit that λ 2 decreases while γ increases. The λ 2 increases monotonically as d min grows, and they fit very well in a linear relationship. t c (or k c ) decreases as γ reduces and d min increases. Via observing the behavior of the largest eigenvalue (λ n ) of the Laplacian of the network topology, we draw the conclusion that the robustness over time delays declines while the robustness over node-failures and edge-failures increases.

Hybrid control systems are a combination of real-time control law and discrete-state logic. This paper describes how a Development Framework for control systems software has been adapted so that it may also handle discrete events such as mode switching. The Framework provides a highly automated path from a control engineering specification to a distributed system implementation. Simulink, an extension to Matlab, is used to specify control laws, and a statecharts tool, Statemate, is used to specify and model discrete-state components. The design phase of the Development Framework supports the integration of the two sets of specification. An inverted pendulum control system is introduced as a simple example of a hybrid system implemented using the Framework. The translation of statecharts to dataflow notations is described for the example system. General translation rules are also presented.

Access to restricted spaces underwater requires a small unencumbered camera. A low cost solution has been envisaged. It consists of an hermetic capsule enclosing the camera and lights, joined to the host by an umbilical. Along the umbilical go six water carrying ducts. Three of them end at backwards pointing nozzles located at the capsule body. The jets of water flowing from the nozzles are controlled and their forces allow some restricted positioning of the camera. Another three ducts end at nozzles located some distance up the umbilical, and allow greater maneuverability.

Research of discrete event systems is strongly motivated by applications in flex ible manufacturing, in traffic control and in concurrent and real-time software verification and design, just to mention a few important areas. Discrete event system theory is a promising and dynamically developing area of both control theory and computer science. Discrete event systems are systems with non-numerically-valued states, inputs, and outputs. The approaches to the modelling and control of these systems can be roughly divided into two groups. The first group is concerned with the automatic design of controllers from formal specifications of logical requirements. This re search owes much to the pioneering work of P.J. Ramadge and W.M. Wonham at the beginning of the eighties. The second group deals with the analysis and op timization of system throughput, waiting time, and other performance measures for discrete event systems. The present book contains selected papers presented at the Joint Workshop on Discrete Event Systems (WODES'92) held in Prague, Czechoslovakia, on Au gust 26-28, 1992 and organized by the Institute of Information Theory and Au tomation of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, Prague, Czechoslovakia, by the automaticcontrol Laboratory of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) , Zurich, Switzerland, and by the Department of Computing Science of the University of Groningen, Groningen, the Netherlands.
