Question 1 Multiple Choice
In image-based visual servoing, the control goal is to drive image feature position from current location s(u, v) to desired location s*. The control law is v = -λ·L^(-1)·(s - s*), where L is the image Jacobian. What does the term L^(-1) accomplish?
AIt inverts the camera distortion to correct the image
BIt converts the desired image feature change (s - s*) into camera velocity v required to achieve that change
CIt amplifies the error signal to make the servoing faster
DIt filters high-frequency noise from the feature measurement
Regularization (Tikhonov damping with parameter λ) is the standard solution: J^+ = J^T(JJ^T + λ²I)^(-1) doesn't truly invert J but computes a least-squares solution that is numerically stable even when J is singular. This is especially important in visual servoing where noise in feature detection is unavoidable.
