Abstract

We present a visual feedback method for closed loop control of automated microassembly. A CAD model based multi-camera visual tracking system that is well suited for flexible automation and assembly of complex 3D geometries was developed. The system is capable of providing six degree-of-freedom pose feedback on the observed micro-components in real-time (30 Hz). Using CAD models of the observed objects, a complete description of the observed scene, including the effect of occlusions, is available and dependence on distinctive visual features such as fudicial marks is avoided.
