Abstract

This paper proposes to use the analogy between a scanning laser beam and a camera. Thereby, a degenerate stereoscopic system can be defined by such a virtual camera and a real camera observing the laser spot on the tissues. This system can be mathematically described by means of epipolar geometry. From the latter, a vision-based control law which has no any matrix inversion nor estimation of the 3D scene is developed. According to the first results of simulation, the proposed control law shows an exponential convergence and robustness with the presence of noise in the sensors signals.
