Homework #7      Due 11/14

 

1.    Consider our end effector shown below.   Using the ten

poses of HW#6, we exercise the arm and acquire ten

corresponding images in one of the two on-board cameras. 

The result is a table of pose angles

(just 2 angles for the 2DOF, on-board, holonomic

portion of this system) combined with cue-center

coordinates.  The cue-center coordinates are separated

according to whether they are camera-space coordinates

of the unique cue or one of the nonunique cues.

 

(a) using the forward kinematics for the unique cue as given in class,

apply a modification of your algorithm for HW5 to determine C1-C6 with equal weighting.

(b) List your residuals together with the converged values of C1-C6.

 

2.    Choose the pose number that is closest to the number

associated with the first letter of your last name divided by 3.  Apply your results from 1 above

to determine the approximate dot product between unit normal n1 as indicated below and the

camera focal axis K.  Apply your results from 1 above to determine the approximate dot product

between unit normal n2 as indicated below and the camera focal axis K.
