“…The resulting control strategy combines the advantages of IBVS, i.e., reactivity and absence of metric localization [5], with the ones of NMPC, i.e., the possibility to take into account constraints such as joints limits and camera field of view during the minimization process. Over the last years, numerous VPC-based controllers were developed to control robotic systems such as a camera mounted on a robotic arm [6] [7] [8] [9], a quadrotor UAV [10], a mobile robot [11] [12], an autonomous underwater vehicle [13] or a tendondriven continuum robot [14]. Regarding mobile manipulators, NMPC strategies usually do not express the task in the image space.…”
