--- abstract: 'The positioning of a robot hand in order to grasp an object is a problem fundamental to robotics. The task we want to perform can be described as follows: given a visual scene the robot arm must reach an indicated point in that visual scene. This marked point indicates the observed object that has to be grasped. In order to accomplish this task, a mapping from the visual scene to the corresponding robot joint values must be available. The task set out in this chapter is to design a self-learning controller that constructs that mapping without knowledge of the geometry of the camera-robot system.' altloc: - http://www.robotic.dlr.de/Smagt/papers/Sma97.ps.gz chapter: ~ commentary: ~ commref: ~ confdates: ~ conference: ~ confloc: ~ contact_email: ~ creators_id: [] creators_name: - family: Smagt given: P. van der honourific: '' lineage: '' date: 1997 date_type: published datestamp: 1998-07-03 department: ~ dir: disk0/00/00/04/94 edit_lock_since: ~ edit_lock_until: ~ edit_lock_user: ~ editors_id: [] editors_name: - family: Browne given: A. honourific: '' lineage: '' eprint_status: archive eprintid: 494 fileinfo: /style/images/fileicons/application_postscript.png;/494/2/Sma97.ps full_text_status: public importid: ~ institution: ~ isbn: ~ ispublished: pub issn: ~ item_issues_comment: [] item_issues_count: 0 item_issues_description: [] item_issues_id: [] item_issues_reported_by: [] item_issues_resolved_by: [] item_issues_status: [] item_issues_timestamp: [] item_issues_type: [] keywords: ~ lastmod: 2011-03-11 08:54:00 latitude: ~ longitude: ~ metadata_visibility: show note: ~ number: ~ pagerange: 195-219 pubdom: FALSE publication: Neural Network Perspectives on Cognition and Adaptive Robotics publisher: Institute of Physics Publishing refereed: FALSE referencetext: ~ relation_type: [] relation_uri: [] reportno: ~ rev_number: 10 series: ~ source: ~ status_changed: 2007-09-12 16:29:05 subjects: - comp-sci-mach-vis - comp-sci-neural-nets - comp-sci-robot succeeds: ~ suggestions: ~ sword_depositor: ~ sword_slug: ~ thesistype: ~ title: Teaching a robot to see how it moves type: bookchapter userid: 462 volume: ~
