Robotics and Control
A camera gives Botie a position, but the object keeps moving. How can we estimate where it is now and use that estimate to choose an action?
From Learned Perception to Control
A detector's output is not yet a useful motion command. Give its coordinates a frame and a timestamp, then follow Botie through repeated corrections. When the actuator cannot do what the controller asks, repair the controller's memory as well as its output.4 lessonsEstimating State from Noisy Observations
Botie is watching parts move along a conveyor. The camera reports slightly different positions from frame to frame, and sometimes misses a part completely. How can we combine what we know about the belt’s movement with those imperfect readings? We’ll build a position estimate, then test how well its reported uncertainty describes its errors.4 lessons
