Abstract :
Discusses the use of computer vision for real-time state estimation in feedback control systems. To this end, the authors construct a system for visual state estimation of simple state vectors and study the effects of various real-world disturbances on the state estimates. Simulations are performed using a detailed camera model to study the performance of an image plane position estimation algorithm for a single circular feature. Various disturbances, such as lens distortion, noise, defocus, and blurring are simulated and analyzed with respect to this estimation routine and visual state estimation in general
