Funded Projects
Uncalibrated Stereo Hand-Eye Coordination
This is a 2 year project to develop robust algorithms which combine
uncalibrated stereo vision with a robotic manipulator to enable
it to locate, reach and grasp unmodelled objects in an unstructured
environment.
Sponsor: EPSRC
Interactive Robotics in Workshop Activities
The aim of this project is to develop an integrated software system
that provides intuitive interaction with mechanical and software
systems for visual inspection tasks, with emphasis on inspection
within the manufacture of hybrid microcircuits.

Invariant Signatures for Visual Servoing
This is a 3 year project to develop novel algorithms for visual
servoing which will be used to guide a robot to a destination accurately
and reliably in a cluttered environment. The project will exploit
new techniques in extracting geometrically salient curves from arbitrary
views and matching curves using affine integral invariants and invariant
signatures.

VIGOR - Visually Guided Robots using Uncalibrated Cameras
VIGOR is a 3-year Esprit Reactive Long Term Research project.
It is developing new techniques for visual guided control of robot
manipulators using several uncalibrated cameras.
Sponsor: Espirit-IV, EC

Coding of 3D Images
This project aims to build realistic 3D models from photographs of
architectural scenes, the PhotoBuilder application reconstructs models
from photographs taken from arbitrary viewpoints.
